In 2022, almost 7 000 refugee students were successfully enrolled in schools around the African continent and took part in the national year-end exams. The overwhelming success rate of refugee students in comparison to nationals proves that refugees with access to the same resources as nationals are more likely to succeed in their educational journey and build better futures for themselves.![]()
The UN Refugee Agency also notes that along with the high national success rate for refugee students, the country of Gabon, located in Central Africa, had a 100% success rate for all the refugee students in the primary, lower secondary, and upper secondary levels.
