Calls to Action

Lets act before its too late Education Cannot Wait

THE URGENT NEED FOR ACTION ON THE HIDDEN SAFESCHOOL CRISIS

When Education Cannot Wait was established its foundersknew there was an immediate issue which needed solvedsystematically education was not seriously included inhumanitarian response plans and the link between emergenciesand longershyterm development was missing A new way ofworking was necessary

And this month a new report Safe Schools The Hidden Crisisreleased by Theirworld with the support of the Conrad N HiltonFoundation demonstrates that the scale of the challenge maybe even more grave than imagined On current trends by 2030 75 of all young people living incountries impacted by conflict violence and humanitarian emergencies ndash nearly half a billionpeople ndash will not be on track to learn even the most basic skills In the hotbeds of social unrest andinstability the vast majority will either not receive education ndash or be so poorly served by the availableeducation options ndash that hope for a better future is severely jeopardized

The Framework describes how actors mdash from governments and global funders to NGOs philanthropiststhe business sector and local communities mdash can focus on the populations and barriers to educationthat reflect their organizational interests and utilize their inherent advantages It describes for instancehow NGOs and academia can pilot programs and share results so that best practice can be taken toscale how business beyond just financial support can utilize the range of employee talent servicesproducts and technology at their disposal and how international financial institutions can set policydirections and standards for the implementation of safe schools and learning environments It alsomakes the case for increased knowledge sharing and public goods building on the pioneering work ofthe United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Education in Crisis and ConflictNetwork the Dubai Cares research envelope ldquoEvidence for Education in Emergenciesrdquo and the IntershyAgency Network for Education in Emergencies (INEE) among others

What disability screening tools are available to use in lowshyresource schools RampE Search For Evidence

An estimated one billion people around the world have a disability of whom 93 million (almost one inten) are children (WHO 2011) Many low and middleshyincome contexts even those with the political willto provide educational support to children with special learning needs often lack sufficient processesand systems to do so

While overarching teaching strategies such as universal design for learning response to interventionand differentiated instruction can help all children learn teachers who understand each childrsquos needsincluding the needs of children with disabilities can better help them learn In short identificationcoupled with targeted followshyup is essential to promoting quality education for all With this goal in mindwhat can education and health systems ndash and their development partners ndash do to support schools andteachers to identify and better support children with disabilities

As part of an ongoing FHI 360 research project to offer effective lowshycost screening options in a publiclyavailable toolkit we reviewed existing disability screens that could be used in classroom settings in lowshyresource contexts

In this blog post we share some favorite resources ndash sometimes standardized screening instrumentssometimes experimental research that might yield new instruments in the future ndash we came acrossduring our review

Cash Transfer Programming for Education in Emergencies Elevating Education in Emergencies

Cash Transfer Programming (CTP) is considered an efficient and effective way to meethumanitarian needs while providing flexibility and choice to aid recipients

There are many benefits to using cash during humanitarian responses it has the potential to stimulatelocal markets it is more efficient it increases peoplersquos purchasing power it can provide a basis for thedevelopment of a social welfare system and it helps bridge humanitarian action and longershy termdevelopment

Donors recognize these important benefits and have stepped up their financial and policy support for theuse of cashshy based interventions Norway has committed to

increase the use of and coordination of CTP across sectors in its new humanitarian strategy and hassuggested a new principle on cash that was endorsed by the Good Humanitarian Donorship (GHD)group in June Switzerland has also committed to longshy term support of cash based interventions and isengaged at bilateral and multilateral levels to ensure that cash is well coordinated in program response

Despite this support the use of CTP has not yet reached its full potential In 2016 CTP accounted foronly 10 of the humanitarian response according to the State of the Worldrsquos Cash Report

The deployment of internally displaced teachers A ldquoreal governancerdquo approach Cyril Owen Brandt

Through qualitative research in the Democratic Republic of Congo this article explores the deploymentof internally displaced teachers Rather than understanding deployment as a technical matter the articleuses a ldquoreal governancerdquo approach to analyse teacher deployment It reveals how education isorganized during displacements and why teachers return to their villages after displacements The articleargues that state actors with weak capacities in service delivery can be able to exert influence overpublic school teachers even in remote conflictshyaffected zones It makes this influence palpable throughan analysis of concrete practices and relations The article concludingly questions the appropriateness ofthe concept of resilience and reflects about the implications of the analysis for policyshymakers

What a waste Ensure migrants and refugeesrsquo qualifications and prior learning arerecognized

GEM Report

Presented at the Global Education Meeting in Brussels a newpaper produced by our Report in collaboration with EducationAbove All and UNHCR shows that over a third of highly educatedimmigrants were overqualified for their jobs compared to aquarter of nonshymigrants It shows the extent to which this is animportant issue for those concerned new analysis from Europeshows that one in eight immigrants said that not havingqualifications recognized is the biggest challenge they faceplaced well above inadequate language skills discrimination orvisa restrictions

Stories in the news of immigrant doctors and teachers who work as cab drivers occasionally drawattention to the amount of potential being wasted the world over But more needs to be done to raiseawareness of this issue Imagine how much better society could be if these people were in jobs thatmatch their skills

Entitled ldquoWhat a wasterdquo our paper estimates that only 30 of those with higher education degrees inOECD Countries gained outside of Europe and North America work in highshyskilled occupations Lessthan 15 said their level of education matched their jobs

UNESCO report shows insufficient progress on including migrants and refugees innational education systems

GEM Report

Migrant and refugee children in the world today could fill half a million classrooms

Paris 20 November mdash UNESCOrsquos 2019 Global Education Monitoring Report Migration displacementand education is released in the presence of the DirectorshyGeneral of UNESCO Audrey Azoulay today inBerlin The report shows that the number of migrant and refugee schoolshyage children around the worldtoday has grown by 26 since 2000 and could fill half a million classrooms

The Report highlights countriesrsquo achievements and shortcomings in ensuring the right of migrant andrefugee children to benefit from quality education a right that serves the interests of both learners andthe communities they live in

The right of these children to quality education even if increasingly recognized on paper is challengeddaily in classrooms and schoolyards and denied outright by a few governments In the two years sincethe landmark New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants in 2016 refugees have missed 15 billiondays of school

As the DirectorshyGeneral of UNESCO Audrey Azoulay argues ldquoEveryone loses when the education ofmigrants and refugees is ignored Education is the key to inclusion and cohesion Increased classroomdiversity while challenging for teachers can also enhance respect for diversity and an opportunity tolearn from others It is the best way to make communities stronger and more resilientrdquo
