When education is denied to children not because they lack resources, but because they are refugees, that amounts to abuse of children. Int'l community and the @UNHCR_BGD @Refugees @UNinBangladesh @RapporteurUn must bring an end to this abuse. #EducationForAll #RighttoEducation
Replying to @stand_ie @UNESCO
Unacceptable that governments deny children access to education. In #Bangladesh, hundreds of thousands of Rohingya #refugee children are denied even volunteer run schools. burmataskforce.org/campaign-… @BurmaTaskUSA @USEmbassyBurma #EducationDay
