IFIP supports UNESCO's 'Global Education Coalition’ and #LearningNeverStops.
The values of the International Forums of Inclusion Practitioners are closely aligned with the work of UNESCO. In particular, our new IFIP initiatives are designed to support UNESCO’s ‘Global Education Coalition’ and #LearningNeverStops.
Currently, more than 1.5 billion students and youth across the planet are or have been affected by school and university closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Global Education Coalition launched by UNESCO is a platform for collaboration and exchange to protect the right to education during this unprecedented disruption and beyond. It brings together more than 175 members from the UN family, civil society, academia and the private sector to ensure that #LearningNeverStops.
Coalition members rally around three flagships, namely connectivity, teachers and gender, as well as support specific causes including the educational recovery following the deadly explosion in Beirut.
All Coalition members are encouraged to pledge for the protection of learners’ personal information, privacy and security.
