The purpose of this five-day training is to build participants’ knowledge and skills in the fundamentals of Accelerated Education (AE) programming. This training is intended for anyone involved in designing and implementing AE programmes and technical-level staff working on AE or non-formal education policy within a ministry of education.

As this report makes clear, it is not just COVID-19 that is exacerbating global inequality; the world’s unjust economic response to COVID-19 will deepen global inequality for at least a generation. The most marginalised and vulnerable have been left to fend for themselves and millions of children will pay the price with their lives, unless we act now.

To capture the impact of the Beirut explosion on children's psychosocial wellbeing and highlight perceived trends, experiences, priorities and coping mechanisms of children and parents in the aftermath of the event, Plan International Lebanon and Right to Play conducted this joint qualitative assessment of children’s behaviour during PSS sessions and interviews with parents.

This toolkit helps education planners plan and make key decisions on the return to learning during and after education disruptions caused by crises, such as COVID-19, in a way that is equitable, inclusive, and builds the resilience of education systems.

As more countries move in that direction, lessons are beginning to emerge on what is working. These emerging lessons are summarized below and highlighting country examples. Sharing these lessons as they develop can help countries strengthen their reopening plans, and ultimately improve the chances of a successful and safer return to in-person learning for all children.

This is a printable poster that includes all 10 Principles. Great for workshops or to hang up in your office as a reminder of the key components of any Accelerated Education programme!

This report, and the survey findings behind it, provides a unique insight into the perspectives of EdTech experts regarding the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on education in Africa. It is based on the findings of a survey of the eLearning Africa network, which attracted approximately 1650 responses from respondents in 52 countries in Africa.

This guidance note outlines key principles and practical measures for decision-makers to consider before, during and after the transition from closure to reopening. It focuses on safe operations in ECE settings, staff training and support, child well-being and development, and parental communication and support.

The special edition E-Book you are reading about today was produced in real time. The result is a contemporary historical record of how schools, NGOs, governments, and international organizations responded to school closures during the crisis and how they are attempting to use this crisis as a springboard to reimagine—and even transform—education in their communities and countries.

As PlayMatters’ interventions were still in nascent stages of development when the COVID-19 pandemic forced school closures around the world, including in East Africa, the consortium quickly pivoted to develop a family-friendly home learning program to help caregivers engage their children in educational play.

Building on previous webinars focused on inclusive education, this event spotlighted guidance from 2020 Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report: Inclusion and education, DFID’s Girls’ Education Challenge, and the World Bank’s Inclusive Education Initiative (IEI).

Save the Children launched a global research study to generate rigorous evidence on how the COVID-19 pandemic and measures implemented to mitigate it are impacting children’s health, nutrition, learning, wellbeing, protection, family finances and poverty and to identify children’s and their families’ needs during these times.

This annex provides considerations for decision-makers and educators on how or when to reopen or close schools in the context of COVID-19. These decisions have important implications for children, parents or caregivers, teachers and other staff, communities, and society at large.

The DCA Education Team based in Cox’s Bazar together with FCA conducted two rounds of Remote Teachers in Crisis Contexts (TiCC) Training in June 2020, using WhatsApp and Zoom. Find here the training materials. 

This web event, part of our COVID-19 webinar series and the sequel to Catching Up on Lost Learning, Part 1: Applying Accelerated Approaches in Response to COVID-19. This “Part 2” webinar featured new guidance from the AEWG on condensing curriculum in light of COVID-19.

We are pleased to share with you, in this INEE 2019 Annual Report, a summary of the network’s many activities and accomplishments, which are organized by INEE’s four strategic priorities and six primary functions: community building, convening, knowledge management, amplifying and advocating, facilitating and learning, and providing.

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.

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.
