A report by the Global Coalition to Protect Education from Attack (GCPEA), "Education Under Attack 2022" looks at a global study of attacks on schools, universities, their students and staff, in 2020 and 2021. Education is under attack around the world. From Afghanistan to Colombia, Mali to Thailand, students and teachers are killed, raped, and abducted, while schools and universities are bombed, burned down, and used for military purposes. Support for the GCPEA "Education Under Attack 2022" report was provided by the Education Above All Foundation, Education Cannot Wait, the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and an anonymous donor.
EiE-GenKit: A Core Resource Package on Gender in Education in Emergencies, 2021
When gender-responsive, quality education is available to all, it has the potential to transform societies and build sustainable peace.

The EiE-GenKit is the first resource of its kind, providing education practitioners with practical tools to promote gender-responsive programming from crisis to peace and sustainable development. The EiE-GenKit is based on extensive research and consultation with the latest resources, evidence, new tools and good practice available in one easy-to-use package.

UNESCO, supported by Education Cannot Wait, NORCAP and the Swedish International Development Association, has published six case studies conducted in Chad, Ethiopia, Palestine, South Sudan, Syria and Uganda, which assess institutional education information systems (EMIS) and the recurring challenges related to the generation and use of data to inform education in emergencies strategies and programmes.
Humanitarian Education Accelerator
ECW funds The Humanitarian Education Accelerator (HEA), a programme led by UNHCR which supports promising humanitarian education innovations to transition from successful pilots to programmes that can operate at scale. The HEA seeks to address gaps in evidence and scaling capacity by taking common elements from an accelerator – such as mentorship, internal capacity building and establishing a cohort that works together – and merging these with an evaluation-based programme.
