This study, led by Global TIES for Children at New York University, is the first to evaluate a phone-delivered version of a parenting program in the Middle East and the first randomized-controlled evaluation of an audio-only parenting program for a community sample (that is, a sample without diagnosed health problems or disabilities).

تمثل هذه الدراسة أول تقييم لبرنامج تعليم الطفولة المبكرة عن بُعد للعائلات المتأثرة بالنزاع والأزمات، وهي الدراسة الثانية التي تستهدف تأثير برامج التعليم المبكر القصيرة المدى (أقل من 3 أشهر). تقوم الدراسة بتقييم تأثير برنامج التعلم المبكر عن بُعد المستمر لمدة 11 أسبوعًا (RELP)، سواء كان يُقدم بشكل منفصل أو بالتزامن مع برنامج أهلاً سمسم للعائلات (ASF)، الذي يُعد برنامج دعم للوالدين.

This study is the first evaluation of a remote early childhood education (ECE) program for families affected by conflict and crisis and the second of the effect of short-term (shorter than 3 months) ECE programming. It evaluates the impact of an 11-week remote early learning program (RELP) delivered alone and in combination with Ahlan Simsim Families (ASF), a parenting support program.

تقوم هذه الدراسة بتقييم تأثيرات برنامج "أهلاً سمسم"، الذي يعد برنامجًا تلفزيونيًا تم إنتاجه بالتعاون مع ورشة سمسم ورواد الأردن. يتمتع البرنامج بشعبية واسعة، حيث شاهده أكثر من 23 مليون طفل في منطقة الشرق الأوسط وشمال أفريقيا. يُلاحظ أن 57% من هؤلاء المشاهدين يتبعون من النازحين السوريين في الأردن ولبنان والعراق.

This study evaluates the effects of Ahlan Simsim, a television show co-produced by Sesame Workshop and Jordan Pioneers that has been viewed by more than 23 million children across the MENA region, including 57% of displaced Syrians across Jordan, Lebanon, and Iraq.

The manual provides trainers and facilitators with strategically selected materials that they can use to guide them in designing training programmes filled with knowledge and skills. The aim is to support teachers, enabling them to cope and to be well in various contexts of displacement, emergency or adversity.

We present results from large-scale randomized trials evaluating the provision of education in emergency settings across five countries: India, Kenya, Nepal, Philippines, and Uganda. We test multiple scalable models of remote instruction for primary school children during COVID-19, which disrupted education for over 1 billion schoolchildren worldwide. Despite heterogeneous contexts, results show that the effectiveness of phone call tutorials can scale across contexts.

While each organization is responsible for its own data management, humanitarians need common guidance to inform individual and collective action, and to uphold a high standard for data responsibility in all response contexts and in all phases of humanitarian action. This Operational Guidance on Data Responsibility in Humanitarian Action responds to this need.

Bien que chaque organisation soit responsable de sa propre gestion des données, les humanitaires ont besoin d’un cadre de travail commun pour guider leurs actions, tant individuelles que collectives, et maintenir un standard élevé en matière de Responsabilité des données dans divers environnements opérationnels. Les présentes Directives opérationnelles sur la Responsabilité des données dans l’action humanitaire répondent à ce besoin.

This guidance note explores how to use qualitative methods to create more robust assessment processes to ensure more effective programming and services for children with disabilities. This note provides promising practices for engaging with children with disabilities and includes sample tools that can be tailored to fit the needs of a particular assessment process.
