Very happy that this collection on rural education - and my piece on #4H in Costa Rica - is out, thanks to the wonderful and patient editors @Hein10Hart and Julia Tischler!
The determination of our Ukrainian colleagues to advance education despite the war is utterly impressive. Glad that #PHZH has a chance to support #DECIDE.

Andrea Studer, Assistant Director General of @SwissDevCoop, attends the official launch of the #DECIDE project in Chernihiv Oblast, #Ukraine.
DECIDE supports education reforms in Ukraine 🇺🇦 and gives children access to education despite the war.

Yesterday, the Right Livelihood Foundation announced its 2022 Laureates - and we celebrated this in Zurich as well. I'm very happy I got to present the Laureate @RedCecosesola, a truly exceptional Venezuelan cooperative. Thank you, @uzh_rlc for an all-around inspiring event!
Also man muss einfach konstatieren: Erfahrene Lehrpersonen + Schulleitungen + Schulberatung + PHs tun alles, um nicht ausgebildete Lehrpersonen zu stützen. Wenn diese Lehrpersonen nicht scheitern, dann wegen dieser Unterstützung - und nicht weil Ausbildung unnötig wäre. #srfeco
Fresh off the press:
Happy to hold the **Routledge Handbook on the History of Development**

At @phzuerich, we very much agree with SDC @SwissDevCoop director Patricia Danzi!
Switzerland can and should contribute to international educational development, placing the needs of the partner countries at the center of projects.
«Without a solid school education, there is no development. It is an essential cornerstone of poverty reduction.»
@SwissDevCoop Director-General Patricia Danzi at the @movetia_ch and SDC conference in Bern today.
We were honored that Dr. Iris Henseler Stierlin was asked to present one of our SDC-funded projects - DECIDE, Decentralization for improved democratic education - at the event...
This is heartbreaking. Firearms are the number one cause of death of kids and youth in the #USA. No to a culture of violence, no to guns.
Yes to #education, to dealing with #emotions, to #MentalHealthAwareness.
Guns became the leading cause of death among children and teens in 2020, killing more people ages 1 to 19 in the U.S. than vehicle crashes, drugs overdoses or cancer. https://t.co/dPYtfvOctS
Educators: Please read this thread, especially about the Russian soldiers destroying the school, the library... So much needs to be done to assure the education of Ukranian kids even after the retreat of Russian forces.

Novyi and Staryi Bykiv. Sleepy twin villages, combined population: 2000.
Some came back to family here on first day of war; they thought it would be quieter than Kyiv.
A reasonable expectation. But on 27 February the Russians arrived.

The loss of life and the brutality of the war in #Ukraine are staggering. On top, the destruction of educational institutions will have tragic long-term consequences.
