I'm not sure I have all the answers on that one, because it's a difficult conundrum.
If the Syrian youth are in school and we can provide some supports outside of school in the times when other kids would be doing clubs or other activities in order to give the youth a safe place to connect with other kids who are going through the same thing or who have gone through a similar experience, then that would be helpful in making them feel that there was a light at the end of the tunnel and they were not alone in this situation.
That may keep youth in school, and I see that as being the main goal—to try to keep them in school even though they are facing some significant obstacles to feeling like they belong. It really is about feeling like you belong.
