SUMMARY:The Politics of Education and Hope in Forced Migration: Journeys of
  Syrian Young People Across the World
DESCRIPTION:13 November\, 17:15-19:00 GMT\nRegister here to join online or 
 in person at Campion Hall\, Oxford\nCampion Hall has the privilege of welc
 oming Dr Hiba Salem to deliver the Campion Lecture: “The Politics of Edu
 cation and Hope in Forced Migration: Journeys of Syrian Young People Acros
 s the World”\nThis talk introduces Dr. Hiba Salem’s forthcoming monogr
 aph\, which shares the stories of Syrian young people who have grown up in
  displacement. Drawing on life story interviews with Syrian refugee youth 
 across nine contexts\, the talk explores how they navigate life and aspira
 tions amid hostile immigration policies and arrangements that enforce unce
 rtainty. It reveals the disjuncture between the universal promise of educa
 tion and the lived realities of displacement\, situating their experiences
  within a dialogue between the fields of education and forced migration st
 udies. By centring young people’s voices and their strategies of hope\, 
 their stories highlight the need to reconstruct narratives on forced migra
 tion by foregrounding the everyday struggles people face in exercising the
 ir universal rights to education\, to work\, and to build meaningful lives
 .\nBiography of Dr Hiba Salem\nHiba Salem was the 2022–2025 Pedro Arrupe
  Fellow in Forced Migration Studies at the University of Oxford. She earne
 d her PhD and MPhil in Education from the University of Cambridge. Her wor
 k explores the role of education in conflict-affected contexts\, focusing 
 on how education policies and practices intersect with forced migration pr
 ocesses and what education means to communities living with profound uncer
 tainty. Hiba has conducted extensive fieldwork—particularly with Syrian 
 and Palestinian young people—to understand how aspirations are imagined\
 , negotiated\, and lived amid social\, economic\, and political precarity 
 and injustice.\n&nbsp\;
