REGISTRATION: You can register to join the webinar here.

Building on the Framework for Reopening and the new UNESCO GEM report, the “COVID-19 and girls with disabilities: A safe, inclusive return to school” webinar will support ‘back to school’ efforts for a safe, inclusive return to school for all learners.

As governments across the world seek to get education systems back on track following prolonged school closures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, this webinar brings a focus to learners with disabilities, and the particular challenges that girls face. Each presentation will amplify experiences, learnings and recommendations from a diverse range of organisations and expertise, with the shared goal of ensuring that girls with disabilities do not become further marginalised in education through this pandemic.
