As the record number of forcibly-displaced persons in the world
continues to rise, more people of differing origins are sharing
space and learning to live together. Prolonged displacement has
turned into permanent resettlement and citizenship. To reflect this
geopolitical transformation, education too must transform. Beyond
Refuge explores abstractions, practicalities, impediments, and
assets proffered by research participants to illustrate what an
educational transformation should and could look like via a
theoretical framework for emancipatory education of
forcibly-displaced youth. Interviews, focus groups, and participant
observations gather data from participants across local, state,
national, and international levels of educational influence,
resulting in a collection of diverse perspectives. The results of
Swisher's study are presented in narratives and discussions upon
which educational leaders can build. An emancipatory education of
forcibly-displaced youth must begin with an examination of
ourselves, our systems, and our societies and be sustained by
leadership, policies, and practices based in love, empathy,
listening, learning, and community. A central text for the next
steps in inclusive and equitable education, Beyond Refuge appeals
to researchers, teachers, leaders, community figures and
participants, and policymakers wanting to create lasting and
impactful change in their local and national societies.
