UNESCO organizes online seminar on “Education in Emergency Situations”
UNESCO organizes on June 23 an online seminar under the theme of “Education in Emergency Situations.”
The talks will focus on the key aspects that school communities would have to consider in order to strengthen resilience and return to classes in a healthy, safe and pedagogically renewed way.
The seminar seeks to contribute to the protection of children and youth, in the Framework for the Reopening of Schools proposed by the World Coalition for Education.
The online seminar, consisting of seven modules, is a joint initiative of UNESCO and UNICEF in Mexico, of the Ministry of Public Education, the World Bank, the Alberto Bailléres Foundation and the SM Foundation.
The seminar aims to generate and disseminate relevant knowledge and evidence to help different actors of the national educational system act in a pertinent and timely manner against the risks and consequences that the pandemic has brought to educational centers, and to develop greater tools to guarantee the right to education for all students, even in complex conditions such as those that we live today on a planetary level.
The goals of the seminar:
The seminar is meant to reflect on the challenges and opportunities presented by the recovery of school life for the Mexican educational system, considering the scenario of the new normality and the post-health emergency by COVID-19.
It also aims to identify strategies and principles of action that contribute to guaranteeing the right to education for all people (under the focus of life cycle and education for life), particularly of the population in a vulnerable situation, even in adverse conditions, according to Mexican laws and the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations.
The talks will also tackle the physical and mental health of girls, boys, adolescents and young people and their learning needs, in order to contribute ideas so that schools and centers of initial education operate in a safe, healthy and efficient.
