Description

The Education Resilience Activity aims to support Pakistan’s basic education ecosystem to enhance inclusive, sustained access to quality basic education for marginalized children. It is proposed as a five-year activity that will engage with local organizations and provincial and district-level education departments in flood- and conflict-affected districts of Pakistan. Given the multiple tiers of influence and behavior change necessary to impact lasting change, the program will work on three levels: (1) local policy implementation to ensure greater classroom participation of girls and children with disabilities; (2) community mobilization to reinforce inclusive education practices and ensure girls and children with disabilities have the support they need to commit to learning; and (3) a safe school environment that is suitable for all students’ diversity of needs through the Universal Design for Learning (UDL). This suite activities will support sustainable change through targeted, complementary interventions at the system, community, and school levels. This activity will contribute directly to the Mission’s 2023-2028 CDCS DO 3: A healthier, more educated population, IR 3.1: Health and education systems strengthened to respond to key priorities and IR 3.2: Inclusive access to and quality of services enhanced. Furthermore, as the Government of Pakistan and the development community partner to advance foundational learning and early childhood education, this activity will play a central role informing adaptations for a more inclusive classroom
