Resource Hub for Practitioners Working with Young Children in Education in Emergencies

Creating a technical compendium of resources for practitioners working in early childhood development in emergencies (ECDiE)

Childhood Education International collaborated with the Play to Learn Project to support the development of the Play to Learn Resource Hub, which offers free program materials, media content, research, and technical resources from multiple countries, offering tangible strategies and guidance for practitioners working in early childhood development in emergencies (ECDiE).

The Resource Hub shares materials from the Play to Learn Project, an innovative humanitarian initiative from Sesame Workshop, BRAC, International Rescue Committee, and NYU Global TIES for Children.
