Did you know that there may be at least 22.4 million young people with disabilities living in an emergency context? Faced with compounding challenges, accessing safe, inclusive and quality learning spaces is often challenging, if not impossible, for them. In our recent blog, Myriam Jaafar and Mckinney, Rachel of the Inter-agency Network for Education in Emergencies (INEE) and Sophia D'Angelo, PhD present 7 principles to help educators and make education more inclusive for children with disabilities in emergency contexts: http://g.pe/760a50QgqQ5 #TransformingEducation #SDG4

Thanks for sharing, Nolan. I'm so happy to see that mention is made of a safe learning environment for children with disabilities, because this factor can so often be overlooked. In fact, this should be the case for all children. 🙏
