Education is one of the most important aspects of our lives – vital to our development, our understanding and our personal and professional fulfillment throughout life. Nathan Dumlao / UNSPLASH -

Access to education is an important right for refugees in the country of asylum. But millions of young refugees are not granted the possibility to access the right of education and miss out months or even years of education. A reason are missing documents. There is a need for asylum countries to address this issue by establishing procedures in the form of educational assessment for young refugees.
