European Union Declarations and Conventions concerning education for
all European citizens are not new. Do they really improve education
opportunities for one of Europe's minorities, the refugees? Not
necessarily, although they give room for the social agencies, mainly
non government organisations, to take action in favor of refugees'
education. Firstly, those declarations are examined. Afterwards, the
refugees' status and educational situation in the European Union are
considered. Finally, a relationship between the documents and the
reality is established in order to answer that question. Agustín Velloso de Santisteban
Key words: Refugees, Education, European Union, NGOs, Educational Rights.
