ECW Multi-Year Resilience Program: Ecuador 2020-2023

The ECW Multi-Year Resilience Programme (MYRP) 2020-2023 in Ecuador aims to ensure continued access to inclusive and equitable quality education for 105,000 refugee, migrant and host community children and youth. It targets five provinces in the north and in the west of the country where many Venezuelans have settled after fleeing their home country. The programme aims to reach at least 24,000 children through pre-primary education, 53,000 through primary education, and 28,000 through secondary education – 61% girls and 10% children with disabilities. The programme is underpinned by a whole-of-child approach, aiming to improve the quality of teaching and learning, while also addressing critical Mental Health and Psycho-Social Support (MHPSS) and protection needs. In addition, the programme aims to address some of the systemic barriers that prevent refugee, migrant and the most vulnerable host community children and youth from accessing inclusive and equitable quality education.
