Next Steps In Managing Teacher Migration Proceedings Of The Sixth Commonwealth Research Symposium On Teacher Mobility Recruitment And Migration

This collection of papers from the Sixth Commonwealth Teachers' Research Symposium examines current trends in teacher migration, including education in emergencies, forced migration and pan-African migration, in line with the current global focus on education in conflict affected countries.

Through field research from Kenya, South Africa and Uganda, it identifies issues facing refugee teachers and makes recommendations on how policy can address their needs, and thus improve access to education to populations affected by an emergency.
