♿️Children with disabilities are often left out of education responses. Their needs are often overlooked and they can face barriers to accessing assistance.

All education partners have a role to play in mainstreaming disability inclusion in education. #DisabilityDay #IDPD

10 years ago, countries came together to ratify the #SafeSchoolsDeclaration, ramping up commitments to protect education from attacks.

At the 5th International Conference, the @UkrEdCluster highlighted how the international community can take to strengthen monitoring systems.

The denial of #girlseducation is a form of GBV.

Armed groups and the lack of female teachers also increase the risk of #GBV occurring in/around schools.

Education Clusters have an important role to play by ensuring gender equality is high on the agenda.

[UNICEF Lebanon @UNICEFLebanon]

Children are refusing to accept a world where they aren’t included. They want their voices heard, their ideas respected, and their efforts supported.

This #WorldChildrensDay, let’s commit to building a brighter, fairer, more inclusive #Lebanon #ForEveryChild.

At today’s GEC Partner’s Forum, the reflections were clear:

Learning is under threat for millions of children around the world.

But together with our partners, we are working to ensure children do not lose out on learning opportunities, from Day 1 of a crisis. 📚

[UNICEF Ukraine @UNICEF_UA]

After 3.5 years of full-scale war, every child in Ukraine needs their childhood back.

Children need safe environments to develop, learn and thrive again.

The path to Ukraine's recovery begins with protecting its youngest citizens.

In the occupied #WestBank, 48,000 children go to UNRWA schools.

In response to the Israeli Forces “Iron Wall” operation - the longest and most destructive for over 20 years - UNRWA launched an adapted education programme in February 2025.

UNRWA has provided a continuity of learning for its students, including through distribution of self-learning materials, online teaching, and temporary use of Palestinian Authority’s schools.

In the #DRC 🇨🇩an estimated 7m children are out of school & at significant risk of recruitment into armed groups, kidnapping & violence due to ongoing conflict.

But a pilot in North Kivu shows how education & protection actors can work together to keep children safe and learning.

[Global Education Cluster @GlobalEdCluster]

Global and Country Education Clusters work to be Accountable to Affected Populations in EiE responses.

As the only child-focused cluster, that means being accountable to children.

We believe in centering children’s voices and involving them in decisions that affect their lives.

#ClimateCrisis = #EducationCrisis

#ECW urges donors to fund access to a continued quality education for children & adolescents impacted by conflict, forced displacement & climate-induced disasters.

Let's take action now: #EducationCannotWait for any child.

DYK: In 2023–2024, 43% of children reached by #ECW & partners were #refugees or #IDPs.

Forcibly displaced children are among the most marginalized. @EduCannotWait is committed to reaching them with the protection, stability & hope that #education provides.
