00:00 As a consequence of global conflict in places like Syria, Afghanistan, Ukraine and most
00:06 recently Gaza, there are an enormous number of young, very talented refugee students who've
00:13 been displaced from their educational journey.
00:16 So the difficulty for them is that a lot of them are really high performing, so they've
00:20 got A*s in their international baccalaureate and they've gone on to university where they're
00:24 doing say a degree in accountancy or something like that.
00:27 And then what happens is they get bombed out of their homes and they wind up in refugee
00:33 camps and they can't continue their education from there.
00:37 And that's really problematic because if they don't get back into education within a few
00:42 years then it's pretty much over for them and they just wind up driving a cab for the
00:46 rest of their life.
