The INEE Early Childhood Development Working Group, Sesame Workshop, BRAC, the International Rescue Committee and NYU Global TIES for Children are pleased to invite you to a webinar on the Play to Learn Resource Hub!

The Play to Learn project is an innovative humanitarian program from Sesame Workshop, BRAC, International Rescue Committee, and NYU Global TIES for Children that harnesses the power of play to deliver critical early learning to children and caregivers affected by the Rohingya and Syrian refugee crises.

The Play to Learn project is making program materials, media content, research, and technical resources used during the project freely available on the Play to Learn Resource Hub. Materials in the Resource Hub provide rich examples from multiple countries, offer tangible strategies and tips for other practitioners, and highlight the experiences of service providers throughout the six years of the project. We hope other practitioners working in early childhood development will find something they can learn from, use, or adapt.
