Education and Resilience in Crisis cover

This book provides an important lens for understanding how interlocking humanitarian crises caused by armed conflict, natural disasters, forced displacement and, more recently, a global health pandemic have adversely impacted teaching and learning.

It brings together evidence from multiple, diverse research-practice partnerships in seven countries: the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Niger, Somalia, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda. The authors provide a clear account of the key academic, policy and practice questions on education in crisis contexts and consider our capacity to develop just and resilient education systems.

“This is an excellent volume that brings together empirical research in Sub-Saharan Africa, providing critical insights about community, student, and teacher well-being and resilience, informing research, policy, and practice.” Tejendra Pherali, University College London
