UNHCR Iran works with the Literacy Movement Organization (LMO), which is affiliated with the Ministry of Education, to provide literacy and numeracy courses to over-aged and out-of-school refugee children and adults, enabling them to eventually re-join formal education. For more information, please contact the BAFIA or UNHCR office closest to you.
Additionally, UNHCR, through its national NGO partner Pars Development Actors (PDA), provides the opportunity for refugee students to apply for the Albert Einstein German Academic Refugee Initiative Fund (DAFI) scholarship to support their tertiary education.
