Summary:
"In Right Where We Belong, Sarah Dryden-Peterson argues that, although refugees face formidable obstacles in securing educations, there is good reason to have hope. Refugee teachers and students themselves, she reveals, are leading the way. Drawing upon fifteen years of fieldwork and more than 600 interviews in 23 countries, Dryden-Peterson shows that, from open-air classrooms in refugee camps in Uganda to the hallways of high schools in Maine, a new vision for refugee education is emerging"-- Provided by publisher.
