Abstract | According to the The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), there are currently more than 25.4 million refugees globally, representing the largest number of refugees in recorded history. More than one in three refugees who fall under the auspices of the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) protection are of school age (UNHCR 2019a). Dryden-Peterson (2015, 2016) points out that much of what is known about refugee education stems from research conducted in high-income countries of resettlement, ignoring the reality that the majority of refugees live in low- and middle income countries (LMICs) neighbouring their countries of origin. Additionally, 60% of refugees globally reside in cities (UNHCR 2019c), where UNHCR coordinates with host countries to integrate students with refugee backgrounds into the national education system (Dryden-Peterson 2016). The authors attempt to contribute to this literature while highlighting the importance of family and household factors in urban refugee education. Given the importance of education in the lives of refugees, it is necessary to examine the nested layers of context that influence access to schools and educational programming in urban settings. Due to the variance in caregivers for refugee youth, lack of necessary resources, and the precarious nature of familial stability, the authors argue that the family and household should not be overlooked in research and programming addressing urban refugee education.
