BuildPalestine’s Post

📢 Introducing ACADEMICS4GAZA: Empowering Education, Hope and Brighter Futures in Times of Crisis 🌍📚 In the aftermath of the destruction of the last university in the Gaza Strip, Academics4Gaza (A4G) was born from an idea by the Italian academic and humanitarian activist Fabio Carbone. A4G is a humanitarian response to ensure the continuity of the learning process for Palestinian students. Our mission is to provide immediate access to educational opportunities for Palestinian university students, helping them to build a brighter future despite the dramatic challenges they are facing. A4G brings together academics from around the world and across all fields of knowledge as volunteers. Currently, they are providing regular tutoring sessions for students in Rafah and Gaza City. Our organization relies on these dedicated volunteers who assist students through targeted tutoring and mentorship. Together, we strive to create and implement comprehensive educational interventions during emergencies. Our main objectives include: Emergency Educational Assistance: Providing immediate educational opportunities for those affected by humanitarian crises. Psychological and Social Support: Offering psychosocial support to help students overcome trauma and stress. Development and Distribution of Educational Materials: Creating and distributing culturally appropriate learning resources. Teacher Training: Organizing professional development courses for educators. Promotion of Inclusion and Equality: Ensuring education is accessible to all, especially vulnerable groups. Additionally, we focus on research and innovation, advocacy and awareness, partnerships and collaborations, community capacity building, and monitoring and evaluation to enhance the effectiveness of our initiatives. Join us in this vital mission! Together, we can promote resilience and hope through education. Let’s support Palestinian students in continuing their education and building a better future.

Lack of foundational skills development among young learners living in rural communities poses an enormous threat to the future of education in Africa, which, in the long run, also affects Africa’s future economic growth and social development! During one of AREAi’s most recent baseline assessments conducted among learners in the Karonmajiji Disabled Colonoy IDP camp, we discovered that an alarming number of children are enrolled in school but are not learning anything. They could barely identify single-digit alphabets, which is highly problematic for the future of education for these learners and others like them who are faced with this learning crisis in Africa! There is an urgent need for the government and other educational stakeholders to collaborate and work together to address this learning crisis. Scaling up innovations like AREAi’s #FastTrack is a step in the right direction to improve learning outcomes in rural and disadvantaged communities and refugee camps in Nigeria. There is enormous work to be done, and we all must get involved!

Morocco's rural communities face various challenges that impede children's access to quality education. Factors such as inadequate infrastructure, limited resources and socio-economic barriers contribute to the high rate of school digestion. As a result, many children in these areas are denied the opportunity to reach their full potential, pursue higher education and improve livelihoods. Local initiatives and NGOs play a vital role in bridging the educational gap and empowering young people in these disadvantaged communities such as these services.

📚 Palestinian Education Under Attack: A Generation at Risk 💔 A new study has laid bare the devastating toll of the ongoing war in Gaza on education. The findings show that children and young people are facing a learning loss of up to 5 years, with the risk of a lost generation—traumatized, displaced, and deprived of their right to education. As Gaza's children endure immense psychological and physical trauma, urgent global action is needed to prevent an educational and humanitarian catastrophe. Education is not just a right—it is the foundation for hope, stability, and a brighter future. Yet, the report warns that education is being deprioritized in aid efforts. Now, more than ever, we must come together to restore learning, provide support for educators and students, and rebuild Gaza’s shattered education system. #EducationUnderAttack #PalestinianRights #HumanitarianCrisis #EducationForAll #GazaWar #TraumaRecovery #GlobalSolidarity #ChildrensRights #PostWarRecovery #UNRWA #SaveTheChildren #RightToEducation

#SDGTuesday: 📚Education is the key 🔑 of personal and societal development. Yet many children and teenagers face significant 🚧🚧 barriers. In Sub-Saharan Africa, inspiring initiatives aim to make education accessible to all 🙌🏿. However, several countries continue to face challenges that deprive millions of people of access to quality education. Germany 🇩🇪 is working closely with its partners 🤝🏾 to improve access to education and promote equal opportunities in Africa. The aim is to guarantee quality education for all and to promote lifelong learning, in line with SDG4 🎓 🌍 🇺🇳.

In addition, 🇩🇪 supports training programmes for teachers to improve the quality of teaching and make learning accessible to all. Together, quality education for all is possible! 🧮 🤝🏿 African Union United Nations 🇺🇳 #ODD4 #EducationForAll #CollectiveEfforts #CAI_Africa #HalloAfrica #UN #UnitedNations #SustainabilityDevelopmentGoals #SDGS #SDG4

Education funding is crucial for the future of Africa's children. Less than 1 in 5 African countries dedicate 20 per cent or more of their public spending to education. It's time to prioritize foundational learning and ensure every child has a chance to thrive. #DAC2024 #YearofEducation

Happy Africa Day! In Africa, the struggle for education is a stark reality with millions of children across the continent out of school and deprived of the fundamental right to learn and grow. This staggering statistic underscores the urgent need for concerted efforts to address the systemic barriers that hinder access to quality education. Yet, amidst this challenge lies a formidable resource waiting to be unleashed: the African diaspora. On this Africa Day, as we celebrate our rich heritage and shared aspirations, let us also reaffirm our commitment to harnessing the potential of the African diaspora. Together, we can build a brighter future for the children of Africa and ensure that education becomes the cornerstone of our continent's progress and prosperity.

"Learning gains achieved in Malawi and Nepal were equivalent to girls having completed five additional years of formal schooling (and about half this in Ethiopia). Transition rates into formal education were also high, particularly for younger girls with 72% of all 10-14-year-olds across the case studies now in school." Our sixth study in the second phase of our independent evaluation of the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office's Girls' Education Challenge sought to evidence and understand the relative costs and benefits of targeting the most marginalised girls in the GEC. #ValueforMoney provides vital information for development programming.
