An organization plans to reach out by providing Christ-centered educational services to overseas refugees and internally displaced peoples. They want to learn from others who are already educating refugees in creative ways with excellent results. Do you know of anyone? If so, please share contact information or links to resources in the comments section. Thanks!
Go to lots of insightful training videos and data points.

Looks like someone already shared the link to my website (https://books-unbound.org/) — I’m the founder of Books Unbound and we design contextualized learning materials for refugees & marginalized communities. We’re a team of artists, designers, educators, and translators from around the world. We have all sorts of materials – from picture dictionaries to children’s animations & free downloadable resources. Feel free to reach out to me personally with any questions: sophie@books-unbound.org
