"In conclusion, this book presents interesting and significant research on refugees throughout the educational transition.(...) In addition, this book may be seen as a tool for understanding the difficulties and problems refugees face in educational transition, as well as a solution for a better future for refugees, with some suggestions for future legislation and research. I recommend this book especially to social workers dealing with refugees, as it may come as a useful tool in the context of the large number of refugees in Ukraine and not only, as well as to social work students
and lecturers."
