Refugee Education Australia

Welcome to Refugee Education Australia (REA)

We warmly welcome you to Refugee Education Australia (REA), a national network operated as an incorporated not-for-profit. We are committed to supporting people with lived experience of forced migration to access, participate in, and thrive through education—whether in early learning, school, vocational training, or higher education.
If you are a student or learner from a refugee or asylum-seeking background and currently reside in Australia, we are here for you. REA exists to advocate for your educational journey, share resources to help you succeed, and connect you with others who understand and support your aspirations.
If you are an educator, community worker, policymaker, or someone passionate about making education more inclusive, we invite you to join us. REA brings together people and organisations across sectors to share knowledge, build partnerships, and promote equity in education for those who have experienced forced migration.
Together, we aim to create opportunities, raise awareness, and ensure that no one is left behind in their pursuit of education.
