A new book – Education and Resilience in Crisis: Challenges & Opportunities in Sub-Saharan Africa (Bristol University Press) – 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.
This book launch 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 — all of which were part of the European Union’s Building Resilience in Crisis through Education (BRiCE) initiative. The contributors will highlight key academic, policy, and practice findings on education in crisis contexts and consider our capacity to develop just and resilient education systems.
