Save the Children carried out a global survey of children and their parents or caregivers during the COVID-19 pandemic, to find out the impact that the pandemic is having on their access to healthcare, their education, their family finances and their safety, and to hear from children themselves on these topics.

This paper argues that textbooks and pedagogy represent potentially transformative strategies to restructure young people’s learning and expand their social and emotional capacities as they make the journey to adulthood.

Special report: An NRC investigation finds that the fear of Covid-19 is leading to an alarming rise in stress levels amongst refugee and displaced children in the Middle East.

This report spotlights one particular vulnerability that is known to be exacerbated by school closures in times of crisis and risks the continued education of vulnerable children: teenage pregnancy, which threatens to block a million girls across Sub-Saharan Africa from returning to school.

The discussion focused on early childhood development in humanitarian settings, zooming in on education for children aged three to six. Panelists offered a framing of the global pre-primary education landscape and shared insights into innovative examples from the field of supporting young children’s learning at home during the pandemic.

This web event focused on the impact of school closure and reopening on children and young people’s protection and education, as well as the impact on COVID-19 transmission. The webinar highlighted the recent policy paper by INEE and The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action.

This report, the fifth annual education report from UNHCR, predicts that unless the international community takes immediate and bold steps against the catastrophic effects of COVID-19 on refugee education, the potential of millions of young refugees living in some of the world’s most vulnerable communities will be further threatened.

With this report, Save the Children aims to assess how children have been affected since the beginning of the so-called ‘refugee crisis’. We look at five key themes: protection at Europe’s outer borders; immigration detention; access to asylum and residency; family reunification; and guardianship.

This Toolkit was designed for school leaders to support and protect teachers and education support staff in the return to school following COVID-19 related closures. While aimed primarily at school leaders, the Toolkit is also potentially useful for teachers and education support staff to better understand their roles and responsibilities in back-to-school efforts.

Esta caja de herramientas se ha preparado para que los dirigentes escolares puedan apoyar y proteger a los docentes y al personal de apoyo a la educación en el regreso a las aulas tras los cierres ocasionados por la COVID-19.
