Citizens' Europe, initiated in 1975 and relaunched in 1985, should make it possible to bring the peoples of the Community closer together, but remains symbolic and without much practical significance. The States are waiting for the Maastricht Treaty to establish true European citizenship within the framework of political Union. Secondary citizenship limited to a few rights, its scope remains limited and its political effectiveness questionable.

Policy implications include prioritizing the urgent need to increase access to education among refugees; transitioning from a short-term humanitarian response to a longer-term development response; investing in both government capacity to provide education and in formal, quality alternatives to the public school systems; improving data in support of decisionmaking; developing a deliberative strategy about how to integrate or separate Syrian and host-country children in schools to promote social cohesion; limiting child labor and enabling education by creating employment policies for adults; and implementing particular steps to improve quality of education for both refugees and citizens.
