Description
A year ago, global lockdowns and school closures put 1.6 billion children out of school. Since then, a year of shutdowns, distance learning, and economic hardship has created exceptional challenges for getting all children, and especially girls, back on track. Today’s discussion focuses on the challenges girls faced during the first year of the pandemic, and features Susannah Hares, senior policy fellow and co-director of the Center for Global Development's global education program, as well as Temitope Ifegbesan, a Teach For Nigeria alumna and cofounder of the EmpowerHer Initiative.
