Wherever We Go, Someone Does Us Harm: Violence against Refugee and Migrant Children Arriving in Europe through the Balkans Year of publication: 2022 Author: Anita Burgund Isakov | Dženana Husremović | Bogdan Krasić | Violeta Marković | Nikolina Milic | Tatjana Ristić | Alina Trkulja | Nevenka Žegarac Corporate author: Save the Children Children, including thousands of unaccompanied and separated children, comprise about one-third of all refugees and migrants arriving in Europe. Many of these children come through the Balkans, travelling through countries including Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. These are seen as transit countries by refugees and migrants as they try to continue their way toward Western Europe.In this report, Save the Children and the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies at the University of Sarajevo present in-depth research into the level and types of violence that children experience while attempting to reach Western Europe via the Balkans route, the circumstances of that violence, and the policies and practices that exist to support children. They also make recommendations for governments, NGOs and other stakeholders to strengthen the protection and support available to these children.The research was conducted in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, key transit countries on the threshold of the European Union and on the way to Western Europe. It is based on in-depth interviews with 48 children aged between 13 and 19 years old. This report also draws on focus group discussions with 27 professionals in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, mostly field workers who had extensive experience working with refugee and migrant children, and an extensive literature review. The findings of this research were analyzed thematically and interpreted within several keys: using ecological systems theory, an approach based on the rights of the child, and on trauma and resilience-based knowledge. 
Teachers and Migrant Families: Pressing Communication (Iberoamerican Journal of Education; vol. 89, no. 1) Year of publication: 2022 Author: Mohamed Chamseddine Habib Allah Corporate author: Organización de Estados Iberoamericanos (OEI) This article presents the results of a study whose objective is to analyze the state of communication between migrant families and teachers in Early Childhood and Primary Education Centers in the Region of Murcia. Two questionnaires were chosen to develop a descriptive non-experimental quantitative research. The main results reveal that extracurricular activities are not part of the usual conversations between families and teachers. However, acceptable but improvable aspects are detected, such as delving into discipline issues, and student learning, etc. On the other hand, it is evident that the parents still do not go to visit the teachers on their own initiative to address the relevant elements of the teaching-learning process of their children. Docencia y familias migrantes: comunicación acuciante (Revista Ibero-americana de Educação; vol. 89, núm. 1) Year of publication: 2022 Author: Mohamed Chamseddine Habib Allah Corporate author: Organización de Estados Iberoamericanos (OEI) Este artículo presenta los resultados de un estudio cuyo objetivo es analizar el estado de comunicación entre las familias migrantes y los docentes en Centros Educativos de Educación Infantil y Primaria de la Región de Murcia. Se optó por dos cuestionarios homólogos para desarrollar una investigación de carácter cuantitativo no experimental de corte descriptivo. De los principales resultados se revela que las actividades extraescolares no forman parte de las conversaciones habituales entre las familias y el profesorado. Sin embargo, se detectan aspectos aceptables pero mejorables, como profundizar en los temas de disciplina, y el aprendizaje del alumnado, etc. Por otro lado, se evidencia que los progenitores siguen sin acudir a visitar a los docentes por iniciativa propia para abordar los elementos relevantes del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje de sus hijos e hijas.
