Learners in received school uniforms through our ECW MYRP II in-kind scholarship programme. A uniform. A school bag. A reason to show up. Small things. Big difference. 📚 #EducationCannotWait #Somalia #EiE #MYRPII

“I see how much education means in bringing hope where there was only hopelessness.”

After 40 years as a humanitarian worker, @NRC_Egeland, Secretary General of @NRC_Norway, has witnessed the power of #education in the world’s toughest crises.

Together, @EduCannotWait and partners like #NRC help children return to learning, even in the most difficult circumstances.

Through #ECW's #HopeStartsHere campaign, we call on global leaders and partners to invest in education for children caught in conflict, displacement and disaster. Their futures cannot wait.

Investing in girls’ rights starts with protecting their right to education.

Marking International Day of the Girl Child, ECW’s new snapshot explores how ECW & partners support crisis-affected girls – breaking down barriers to access, learning & well-being, and identifying where stronger evidence & investment are needed.

Together, we must go further to ensure every girl affected by crisis can access safe, quality education.

Less than 30 days to turn commitment into action!

On 5 November in Geneva, @EduCannotWait's High-Level Replenishment Conference – hosted by the Government of Switzerland – will bring together governments, foundations, private sector partners and more to invest in the futures of children caught in crises.

Displacement and damaged infrastructure in #Yemen have led to dangerously overcrowded classrooms. Students are crammed into spaces where even hearing the teacher is a struggle. We are building new classrooms to give children the space they need to focus and heal. @EduCannotWait

The severe economic fallout of the conflict in #Yemen is forcing many children to work just to survive. Emergency remedial classes offer a crucial safety net, keeping young people engaged in learning even when economic pressures are at their worst. @EduCannotWait

[UNICEF Nigeria @UNICEF_Nigeria]

Kinda chic to start another academic term in a renovated classroom

In Gwoza, northeast Nigeria, UNICEF is collaborating with @BornoGovt and partners @NRC_Norway @GSF_Nigeria to improve access to education for children affected by conflict.
