Cover of Plan International's Case for Investment

Plan International Australia and Save the Children Australia have launched a call to action for the government of Australia to invest in ECW and support the education of children and adolescents affected by emergencies and protracted crises. Their Case for Investment draws attention to the 222 million children at risk of missing out on an education because of armed conflicts, forced displacement, climate-induced disasters, and protracted crises. The report notes that ECW aims to mobilize at least US$1.5 billion to deliver its 2023-2026 Strategic Plan and calls on the Australian Government to invest $24 million over 3 years in the fund. Plan International Australia’s report “From Crisis to Classroom" also highlights the impact of emergencies and protracted crises on children and adolescent’s education, with a focus on the Pacific.
