Sources:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fXN3xjQgPHEF_UppfD4UoTMd97RYJcMr/view?usp=drivesdk Summary: Going to school was already a daily challenge for many displaced children around the world. Now there are fears some may not return after COVID-19 lockdowns lift. Isai missed two years of school while his family was avoiding social unrest in his home country of Nicaragua and then fleeing first to neighboring Honduras, and later to Guatemala. At the age of eight, he finally returned to the classroom at the start of Guatemala’s school year in January. His mother, Lisseth, said he had just started making friends when COVID-19 hit the country and the government ordered the closure of all schools. “He had only two months of experiencing school life before everything shut down,” said Lisseth. “He’s very sad and distressed. For him, it is like being in Nicaragua all over again.” Even before the coronavirus pandemic shuttered schools around the world, disrupting the education of almost 1.6 billion students according to UNICEF, classrooms were closed to millions of displaced children. Less than half of school-aged refugee children were enrolled while only one in four were attending secondary school. Months-long school closures risk reversing small gains recently made in expanding access to education for refugee children.
