Abstract

The state of asylum or refugee situation, challenges the right to quality education and the approaches of countries are different from each other. This article analyzes the situation of the right to education of Congolese children who are housed in the refugee camps of Musasa in Burundi. Access to education, equal opportunity, the best interests of the child, and compliance with international commitments shape the landscape of the right to quality education. The article further shows that quality education for refugee children is precarious and poses many challenges in its implementation. This is further measured by the results collected from the school in MUSASA refugee camp. It is noted that in almost all school years the success rate is much lower than 50%. In addition, the implementation of the rights related to education by the state, such as Burundi, is a Utopia. The factors that are at the height of this success rate, are among others the qualification of teachers, the supervision of teachers and students, overcrowded classes lack of equipment and laboratory, discouragement of teachers due to the non-existent salary, resignation from the teaching career due to lack of sufficient salary etc. In addition, it has been

国际难民法对布隆迪境内刚果儿童优质教育的适用性:人权和难民观点

庇护或难民状况对优质教育权提出了挑战，各国的应对方法也不尽相同。本文分析了居住在布隆迪穆萨萨难民营的刚果儿童的受教育权状况。受教育的机会、机会平等、儿童的最大利益和遵守国际承诺构成了优质教育权的格局。文章进一步表明，难民儿童的优质教育是不稳定的，在实施中面临许多挑战。从MUSASA难民营的学校收集的结果进一步衡量了这一点。值得注意的是，几乎所有学年的成功率都远低于50%。此外，由国家实施与教育有关的权利，如布隆迪，是一个乌托邦。在这个成功率最高的因素中，包括教师的资格，对教师和学生的监督，班级拥挤，缺乏设备和实验室，教师因没有工资而气馁，由于缺乏足够的工资而辞去教师职业等。此外，它已经

期刊介绍： The purpose of this journal is to provide a medium of exchange for scientists engaged in applied sciences (physics, mathematical physics, natural, and technological sciences) where there exists a non-trivial interplay between mathematics, mathematical modelling of real systems and mathematical and computer methods oriented towards the qualitative and quantitative analysis of real physical systems. The principal areas of interest of this journal are the following: 1.Mathematical modelling of systems in applied sciences; 2.Mathematical methods for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of models of mathematical physics and technological sciences; 3.Numerical and computer treatment of mathematical models or real systems. Special attention will be paid to the analysis of nonlinearities and stochastic aspects. Within the above limitation, scientists in all fields which employ mathematics are encouraged to submit research and review papers to the journal. Both theoretical and applied papers will be considered for publication. High quality, novelty of the content and potential for the applications to modern problems in applied sciences and technology will be the guidelines for the selection of papers to be published in the journal. This journal publishes only articles with original and innovative contents. Book reviews, announcements and tutorial articles will be featured occasionally.
