Sudan: Sudanese Refugee Children Find Hope in Libyan School

As war continues to ravage Sudan, displacing millions and crippling vital infrastructure, thousands of families have fled the country in search of safety. Among the nations offering refuge is Libya—a country already struggling with its own political and economic issues. For Sudanese refugees, access to education for their children remains one of the most urgent challenges, with many having been out of school for years.

In Misrata, a coastal city in western Libya, a beacon of hope is emerging. The Sudanese-Libyan Al Takamul School, established in late 2023, has become a sanctuary for displaced children, providing them with renewed purpose and a chance to rebuild their futures. What began as a modest initiative with just two classrooms now accommodates over 750 students across all grade levels, from primary to secondary school.
