Education In Emergencies Practitioners

We might not be able to end all wars on the continent, but we can work to ensure safeguards are in place to protect children during war and after war

Happy New year,
To every refugee child, quality education

The case for education as an emergency response becomes stronger when it is recognized that the value of ensuring that education is available goes beyond simply meeting legal rights

Education gives shape and structure to children’s lives and can instil community values, promote justice and respect for human rights and enhance peace, stability and interdependence. Schooling is also widely recognized as a symbol of normalcy as it also provides the kind of everyday routines around which a wider social stability can be rebuilt
