Ladder to Learning: Supporting Refugee Learners in Uganda
Through a program called Ladder to Learning (LTL), Young African Refugees for Integral Development (YARID), a refugee-run organization, and Street Child, an international organization specializing in education in emergencies, have collaboratively conceptualized and created a simpler, more scalable, and sustainable program that is supporting refugee learners as they acquire foundational skills in English, making it possible to transition into state schools in Uganda.
LTL is the first and only language intervention for refugee learners in Uganda, allowing refugee learners to acquire language skills in a safe, secure, and stable space, with strong, supported transitions into state schools.
