Reimagining Education: Distance Education in Humanitarian Settings

By: Inter-agency Network for Education in Emergencies (INEE)
  • Summary

  • Reimagining Education is an INEE interview series featuring a range of perspectives on distance education in crisis-affected contexts, as presented by teachers, implementing actors, donors, and academics delivering distance education interventions in crisis contexts. Some episodes present real-life examples and solutions, while others focus on theoretical concepts about distance education in humanitarian settings. Each interview highlights the unique contributions of those working on the ground and the challenges they face. As the COVID-19 pandemic forces education actors to reorganize delivery mechanisms, this series shares the perspectives of those responding to changing needs. Each episode is hosted by a different member of the INEE Distance Education Reference Group (DERG).
