1) Action\nResearch in the Dadaab Refugee Camps, Kenya<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moderator:<\/strong> Don Dippo (moderator) with\nundergraduate students in Dadaab presenting their action research\nprojects (connection via Zoom)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Dadaab Refugee Camps is a place that has been extensively researched by scholars and practitioners from the global north. Refugees and refugee communities are seldom able to conduct and share their own research in academic spaces. Over the past year, the BHER Project offered an action research course where undergraduate students in Dadaab were able to go into their communities and conduct research on challenges in equity and education that they felt were relevant in the Dadaab Camps, ranging from the impacts of FGM, music education, schooling feeding programs, and out-of-school children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speakers in Dadaab:<\/strong> Abdi Bashir (Understanding the Instruction and the\nTeaching of Pre-Primary Life Skills Curriculum in Two Schools in Hagadera Zone,\nDadaab, Kenya),\nKassahun Hiticha (Marginalized Out of\nSchool Children \u2013 Primary), Abulong Okello (Choir Formal Education in a Primary\nSchool in Ifo Camp), Abdi Aden (Importance of School Feeding Programs in\nDagahaley Primary Schools), Deka Shahow (The Impact of Poverty on Single Mother-headed\nFamilies Living in Dagahaley Camp), Dahabo Ibrahim (The Impact of FGM on Child Education\nat Dagahaley Camp) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Refugee\nScholars in Dadaab: Graduate Study and Research in Displacement<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moderator:<\/strong> Mohamed Duale (moderator)\nwith current graduate students in Dadaab presenting in-depth\nproposals for their Major Research Papers (MRP) (connection via Zoom)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the last five years, the Borderless Higher Education for Refugees (BHER) Project has nurtured a cohort of emerging refugee scholars who are committed to the realization of equitable, peaceful and sustainable development in emergency and post-conflict settings in the Horn of Africa. This first cohort of Master of Education students will be presenting their in-depth proposals for their major research projects in the Dadaab Refugee Camps and the wider region. The panel will also focus on the challenges of pursuing graduate education in displacement, and the importance of refugees as knowledge producers in academia, a field where they are over-researched but their voices are vastly underrepresented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speakers in Dadaab:<\/strong> Abdikadir Abikar (The Impact of Introducing School based In-Service Training in Ifo Primary Schools to Academically and Professionally Support Untrained Teachers), Abdullahi Yusuf Aden & Arte Dagane (Why the Female Drop Out Rate is Higher than the Male Drop-out Rate in Secondary Schools in Ifo Refugee Camp, Dadaab), Fatuma Jama (Factors Influencing Girls Access to Primary Education in Dagahaley Camp, Dadaab, Kenya), Robert Ochan Leomoi (Exploring Examination Malpractices among Refugee Students in Secondary Schools in Ifo Camp, Dadaab, Kenya), Okello Mark Oyat (Investigating Corporal Punishment in Refugee Secondary Schools: The Case of a Secondary School in Ifo Camp, Dadaab), Ahmed Mukhtar Abdi (The Challenges and Impact of the New Somali Curriculum in Kismayu: The Case of Primary Schools) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public accounts on the 2015 European\nrefugee crisis covered the issue through an individualizing gaze placed on the\nrefugee subject. The refugee in suffering, an experience witnessed by us all,\nas a spectacle, from the distance: Images of crowded tents, boats caring\noverflowing numbers of people, children dying on Mediterranean shores. Trace\nturns the gaze outwards, scrutinizing the \u201cspace\u201d of the crisis in which people\nseek refuge. On the one hand, there is the everyday of the \u201cspace.\u201d The\nordinary Greek island life with not much to do in the early hours of the day,\nwith people anchoring their fishing boats, some going for a swim, some\nstrolling for a walk. On the other hand, the island space changed from hosting\nrefugees\u2019 presence to hosting their absence. Trace figuratively marks the\nabsence of the refugee crisis by symbolically creating a visual topography of\nthe space containing the crisis, and juxtaposed to narrative accounts of people\ninvolved in the crisis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
