Integrative strategies for social inclusion and equity: Enhancing refugee access to higher education in Jordan

Incorporating sustainability principles into refugee education, an often overlooked yet crucial domain is pivotal for future societal development. Focusing on UNHCR 's directive in Jordan, this research delves into the nuances of elevating refugee enrollment in higher education to 15 % by 2030. The study identifies significant challenges through empirical and theoretical lenses, such as financial impediments, infrastructural deficits, and socio-cultural deterrents. A multi -layered solution is proposed: instituting targeted scholarship programs, bolstering institutional capacities for diverse learners, leveraging digital education platforms, and fostering global educational partnerships. By strategically enhancing higher education opportunities for refugees, nations harness a richer tapestry of skilled human capital and underscore a commitment to holistic sustainability, inclusivity, and equity.
