Behind The Pages - Podcast Of The Jeie

Behind the Pages, the podcast of the Journal on Education in Emergencies, features exciting and timely conversations with JEiE authors about their work on education in regions affected by crisis and conflict. In this episode, Tejendra Pherali explores how teachers of Syrian refugees in Lebanon reflect on ideal education spaces and practices and the role of teacher professional development in creating these imagined futures. In their article “Educators for Change: Supporting the Transformative Role of Teachers in Contexts of Mass Displacement,” Pherali and co-authors Mai Abu Moghli and Elaine Chase show that while teachers create networks of practice worldwide, professional support systems are especially important for teachers who work in under-resourced environments and strained education systems.
