Organizer: Brave Movement, Education Cannot Wait, GPE, Plan International, Safe to Learn, Save the Children, Together for Girls, Transform Education, UNGEI and UNICEF, along with the Global Partnership to End Violence against Children

Safe to Learn and partners are hosting a side event at the High Level Financing Conference to mobilise increased action to make sure all children, in all contexts and in all their diversity, are safe to learn by sharing solutions and discussing ways to scale them up and take them forward. The Brave Movement, Education Cannot Wait, The Global Partnership for Education, Plan International, Safe to Learn, Save the Children International, Together for Girls, Transform Education, UNGEI and UNICEF, along with the Global Partnership to End Violence against Children are thrilled to galvanise the global education community to come and take part in this powerful event.

This highly interactive side event will see speakers propose solutions to provide all children, in all contexts and in all their diversity, the ability to learn safely. Solutions will be proposed by young people and senior education leaders will act as respondents in the room, who will set out how their organisation can help facilitate the scale-up of such solutions. The quick-fire solutions and response structure will help mobilise more and better coordinated action to end violence in and around schools.

Join the event to:

  • Hear solutions from young people and survivors on how to prevent and respond to violence in, against and around schools in all contexts
  • Learn from respondents about what the global education community is doing to encourage to help scale up such solutions
  • Hear more about resources and materials that can be used to help enable all children to be safe to learn

Living in some of the most difficult contexts in the world, children in conflict zones are at extreme risk of grave violations, including conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV). Such violence is influenced by gender, with boys and girls experiencing CRSV in different ways, with different drivers and distinct vulnerabilities.
