The Rohingya Education Emergency
—And Host Nations Must Deliver on Their Pledges
After the 2017 Rohingya exodus, Bangladesh refused to integrate refugees into its national education system, citing “imminent repatriation.” This policy has left thousands of youth in limbo, unable to take formal exams or pursue higher education.
NGOs and UN agencies have faced tight restrictions, and community-run schools remain unaccredited. Meanwhile, instability in Myanmar continues, making repatriation in the short-term increasingly difficult—and urgent education reform essential right now.
“Without access to higher education, an entire generation of Rohingya youth risks being permanently left behind.”
Norwegian Refugee Council
“In addition to Bangladesh’s obligations to ensure the right to education under the Convention on the Rights of the Child and other human rights treaties, the 2018 Global Refugee Compact, which Bangladesh endorsed, calls for the integration of refugee children into national education systems.”
“The barrier to schooling for Rohingya refugee children is not a lack of resources, but the government’s policy of deliberate deprivation of education in pursuit of its efforts to prevent the refugees from integrating. The Bangladesh government is violating its international obligations by denying refugee children a formal, certified education; secondary-school-level education; access to Bangladeshi schools outside the camps; instruction in the Bengali language; and adequate school buildings.”
“Although Bangladesh claims that Rohingya children do not need formal education because they will soon return to Myanmar, the denial of education to Rohingya children is an entrenched policy that Bangladesh has imposed for decades. This raises grave concerns that it will persist however long the Rohingya refugees remain in Bangladesh.”
