Psychosocial Support for Students in Gaza
In light of the ongoing humanitarian crisis, INEE and the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) held a webinar focused on supporting the psychosocial wellbeing of children in Gaza. This webinar sought to shed light on the vital role schools and educators play in offering psychosocial support to children, once conditions permit the reopening of schools and temporary learning centers in Gaza.
Recognizing the unique position of schools and teachers in supporting the fundamental needs of children, this aimed to raise awareness of the importance of targeted psychosocial support within educational settings.
Panelists, including representatives from NRC, research partners, and INEE, provided valuable insights into practical strategies for supporting the psychosocial wellbeing of children in Gaza. This webinar also served as a call for international attention and support for the right to education in Gaza, emphasizing actionable steps that can be taken to make a meaningful difference.
