The COVID-19 pandemic continues to disrupt our way of life, causing education systems to experience their worst crisis in a century. At the peak of school closures in April 2020, 94 per cent of students—or 1.6 billion children—were out of school worldwide. Around 700 million students today are still studying from home.

The pandemic is putting an entire generation of students at risk of losing about $10 trillion in future lifetime earnings. It has exacerbated the Learning Poverty crisis, and the impact on the human capital of this generation of learners will be long-lasting.

Details:

You can do so by telling us:

What insights from your experience during the COVID-19 pandemic do you think would improve learning? What should educators and policymakers do differently?”

This is your chance to get creative. The World Bank and the Financial Times are organizing their fourth joint global blog/essay writing competition.

We are looking for your most inventive ideas, high-quality writing, and solutions to improve education outcomes beyond the pandemic.

Be innovative, be persuasive – and be bold!
