If educating populations that have been affected by crises or natural disasters is vital to the rebuilding of communities, this book argues that education should figure as priority among all the crucial issues to be addressed, as it is essential to the future of these populations. It is meant as an aid to organizations and educational planners, with discussions of issues such as funding, inclusive education, safety in schools, trauma healing, curriculum activities and distance learning.--Publisher's description.
