Original Title:
Πανδημία covid - 19 και εκπαιδευτικοί αποκλεισμοί: Χαρτογραφώντας τις πρακτικές προσφυγισσών μαθητριών του Κέντρου Φιλοξενίας Προσφύγων Ριτσώνας
Translated title:
The covid-19 pandemic and educational exclusion: Mapping the practices of refugee schoolgirls at the Ritsona Refugee Camp.
Summary:
The present ethnography analyzes how students-residents in the Ritsona refugee
camp are systematically excluded from typical education by the Greek state during the
covid - 19 pandemic. Furthermore, by adopting an approach that focuses on both
vulnerability and resistance, it examines the forms of collective resistance and the
gendered processes of subjectification of the Youth Refugees Movement group in light
of the actions they carry out so that they can claim to be included claiming in the
educational system. Based on the recording of several artistic actions, public
gatherings inside and outside the refugee camp and educational activities of the young
refugees from Afghanistan, this thesis argues that despite the extremely restrictive
conditions of waiting that prevail in the camp, collective subjectivities with
transformative action clearly emerge. Through the above-mentioned practices, the
boundaries of the political are expanded and, furthermore, it is the formation of a
claiming collective and embodied subject that encourages gendered negotiations and
strategies of re-subjectification among the members of the group under study both in
the realm of family, as well as in their community.
