Education in Crisis and Conflict
Safe Access to Learning, during and after the Ebola Crisis
This brief welcomes safe school reopening plans across Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, and explains how education partners are supporting the reopening of schools and continued learning for out-of-school children and youth. To ensure all schools are safe before they open and to secure long-term education opportunities for all children in a region with some of the lowest education indicators in the world, this brief recommends four key actions:
- Make schools safe and supportive;
- Support home-learning;
- Strengthen the education system;
- Recognise the role of education response in the Ebola response. (p. 1)
