Calls to Action

Data Collection and Evidence Building to Support Education in Emergencies NORRAG

Special Announcement | Upcoming NORRAG Special Issue 03

This Special Issue intends to address the question of data and evidence tosupport education in emergency (EiE) situations. The duration ofemergency situations – conflicts but also natural disasters – frequentlyspans longer than a typical basic education cycle of 12 years. In thesecontexts, education is often relegated to the poor neighbor of humanitariansupport despite its critical role in bringing back a sense of normalcy andprotecting children by providing them with a safe place in precariousenvironments.

It is shown that a large share of the problem lies in the lack of data andevidence about the situation of children in emergency situations, bestpractices and critical needs. The lack of data and evidence severelyundermines the ability of countries to develop sound and articulatededucation sector plans and transitional education plans. Against thebackdrop of strong requirements for evidence­based plans needed to ensure funding and appropriatemonitoring and evaluation of progress, the absence of data and lack of research can jeopardize rapidrecovery from emergency situations. Research in emergency settings is further complicated by safetyconcerns, but also sensitive political, social and cultural environments making identification of “whatworks” a daunting task

Textbooks are Still Essential Paul Gibbings, INEE

A web­portal development securing better provision to schools

Until the time when all school children and schools have mobilephones and reliable internet, the hard copy textbook is still goingto play an important role in initiating and promoting literacy.

Back in May, INEE published “A web­portal developmentsecuring better textbook provision to schools,” highlighting theefforts of a group of students from RMIT University in Melbournein developing a web portal that encompasses data collectionfrom all schools using a Returned Book Record (RBR). This datais input onto a web­portal known as the Textbook Requirement Information Management System(TRIMS).

The RBR allows school principals or their staff to provide textbook information that gives the Ministryquick access to the requirements of the schools, the district, the province, and countrywide needs for thefollowing school year.

Education Needs Immediate and Collaborative Support to Prevent One Whole Generationmissing out on Education

While the world celebrated earlier this month both the anniversaries of International Literacy Day, andInternational Day for Peace, more than 263 million children are currently not in school. Two millionchildren of these are in Yemen alone! This number is likely rise every few minutes.

Yemen is viewed as the worst humanitarian crisis in the region. In 2018, Yemen ranked 4th in the FragileStates Index as “highly alerting”.According to UN OCHA data, twenty­two million (75%) of the population,need humanitarian assistance and protection. In addition to countless casualties and human rightsviolations massive population displacement economic pressure and social infrastructure continue to

In July2018 alone, at least 21 children were killed and 82 more were injured during attacks in severalgovernorates. Between March 2015 and June 2018 over 2,635 children were recruited by armedgroups.

Mobile Tech That Empowers Parents to Read to Children in Crisis Situations NetHope Solutions Center

Thu, October 18, 2018, 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM PDT

At the scheduled time of the webinar click here for the WebEx meeting link.

Research has repeatedly shown the benefits of reading aloud tochildren, yet populations affected by conflict often lose access toreading material and need support to re­establish, or create, areading culture in the home. Mobile technology offers a uniqueopportunity to reach such populations at scale–whether they beon the move or settled in camps in a new country. With theprimary objective of increasing parental engagement in readingto children, Worldreader’s Tuta Tuta project works to increasereading at the household level through a combination of direct reading support, free access to high­quality Arabic children's stories on mobile, and a digital and traditional behavior change campaign.

[Video] Refugees Like Everyone Else Have the Right to Quality Education UNSECO

Every two seconds someone is forced to flee their home to escape war, persecution or natural disaster.

As they arrive in their host communities and countries and begin to rebuild their lives, access toeducation is more important than ever. But today, only one per cent of eligible refugees have access tohigher education. UNESCO, the only UN agency with a mandate in higher education, works withgovernments to ensure that refugees get an equal chance at learning.

Crisis Contexts. Two detailed examples were presented of how this type of continuous professionalsupport helps teachers make positive changes in their teaching practices.

The most promising teacher professional development programs provideteachers with different opportunities to learn new knowledge and skills andenough time to practice these techniques in their classrooms. In crisiscontexts, where many teachers are untrained or undertrained, thiscontinued support is arguably needed most; yet professional developmentin these settings is sporadic, of varied quality and often lacking any followup support post­training (Burns and Lawrie, 2015).

The new Peer Coaching Pack for Teachers in Crisis Contexts,developed by the inter­agency Teachers in Crisis Context Collaborative(TiCC), provides an additional layer of support for teachers by preparingthem to use supportive communication techniques, adult learningpractices, Teacher Learning Circles (TLCs) and Classroom Observationsto continue their professional development. In this way the new packbuilds on the Training for Primary School Teachers in CrisisContexts by using collaborative activities that allow teachers to create anetwork of support and to develop communities of practice outside of training workshops.

Where Child Protection and Education in Emergency Cross INEE

A mapping by the INEE Advocacy Working Group

This paper provides a mapping of the critical intersections between child protection (CP) and educationin emergencies (EiE). The hope is that this mapping will help to establish

research parameters around which the two sectors can conduct strategic and focused advocacy that willstrengthen the quality of both child protection and education

responses in times of emergency. The hope is also that it will encourage further joint planning andprogramming where possible between the two sectors, as well increase understanding within the twocommunities of the protective role education plays in

emergencies, and vice versa. The mapping is informed by two research questions: 1) Primary research question: What are the criticalintersections between child

protection and education in emergencies?

2) Secondary research question: What are theprotective roles and elements of

education according to the CP field and according to theEiE field?

Hear it from the Teachers Save The Children

Forced displacement is at an all­time high. In 2017, 68.5 millionpeople were displaced globally ­ a 50% increase in the lastdecade. Within this number, there are now 25.4 million refugees– the highest known total to date and an increase of 2.9 millionfrom 2016.3 Last year, the largest numbers of refugees camefrom Syria, Afghanistan, South Sudan and Myanmar.

The four countries hosting the largest populations of refugeeswere Turkey, Pakistan, Uganda and Lebanon, with Lebanoncontinuing to bear the biggest burden relative to nationalpopulation size.4 While Bangladesh hosted the seventh­largestrefugee population, it saw by far the most dramatic surge in2017, when the number of refugees increased more than three­fold as a result of the Rohingya crisis in Myanmar.5 Children shockingly make up over half of the globalrefugee population. In terms of education, it is estimated that 4 million school­age refugees globally arecurrently out of school.6 Since 2011, the number of out­of­school refugee children has grown by 600,000on average a year. At this pace, UNHCR predicts at least 12,000 additional classrooms and 20,000additional teachers needed each year.

Supporting Quality Decision­Making for Children in Crisis IRC

Results and Recommendations from a Field­Mapping Study ofStakeholders’ Monitoring, Evaluation, and Research Practicesand Needs

Nearly 62.5 million children are out of school in 32 countriesaffected by conflict. Those in school often face poor quality andmultiple risks that prevent them from regularly attending and completing school, and from learning theacademic and social­emotional skills critical for successful futures. Globally, there are approximately 411million children who despite being in school are not achieving minimum proficiency levels in reading andmathematics.

These findings illustrate that while the majority of stakeholders working with children in crisis contextsvalue, require and engage in research and monitoring, few seem to prioritize and use rigorous methodsthat can yield high confidence in the quality of impact evidence.

Diplomacy to Mobilise Momentum for Girls’ Education Wilton Park

How can diplomacy, and the UK’s new diplomatic focus, mobilisemomentum for girls’ education? This was the question thatbrought together different actors from a variety of sectors toadvance the global campaign for girls’ education, and identifyways to utilise the tools that diplomacy can offer to improveaccess to education for girls across the world.

Education is central to a girl’s development and empowerment.Beyond developing basic literacy and numeracy skills, educationenables girls to make better choices about their health, equipsthem to effectively engage in a changing world and ultimatelytransforms their lives and the communities they live in. However, UNESCO estimates globally more than130 million girls between the age of six and 17 are out of school and 15 million primary school girls willnever have access to education.

Reflections for World Teachers Day By Tara Stafford Ocansey. NORRAG

Even with all our new tech, quality learning still requires quality teachers

This NORRAG Highlight is published on the occasion of WorldTeachers Day, celebrated annually on 5 October. Tara StaffordOcansey is the Senior Education Technology Specialist of theConnect To Learn initiative of the Center for SustainableDevelopment, Earth Institute, Columbia University. In this blogpost, the author reminds us of the central role of teachers inlearning processes, and presents a Connect to Learn initiativethat aims at improving quality learning via integrating ICT tools inteaching practices.

For most of us, if we think back on who in our lives have had the most profound impact on us, whopushed us to pursue our dreams, who provided us with examples of what a responsible, self­possessedadult looks like outside of our own families, we think of our teachers. Here in the United States, as inmany parts of the world, our culture is great at singing the praises of teachers for these reasons.Teachers care for us, and help guide our journeys to figuring out what roles we will play in economic,civic and social life. Yet when it comes to recognizing the immense contribution of teachers throughtangible ways that improve their status, we continue to fall short. World Teachers’ Day is recognizedevery year on October 5th to commemorate the 1966 adoption of the ILO/UNESCORecommendation concerning the Status of Teachers. The Recommendation addressed teachers’ rightsand responsibilities, and standards for their preparation, ongoing professional development, andclassroom conditions. Further, it sought to raise the status of teachers by calling for teachers’participation in education decision making and their rights to collective bargaining. With regard tosalaries, the Recommendation states that teachers’ salaries should “reflect the importance to society ofthe teaching function”. Fifty­two years since the Recommendation’s adoption, can we say that oursocieties have achieved these standards?
