On Thursday, November 19, the Local Engagement Refugee Research Network (LERRN) and the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) hosted their second webinar in the LERRN-IDRC webinar series to discuss the impact of COVID-19 on refugee education.

Reflecting on the report findings, Mai Abu Moghli and Elaine Chase emphasized the significant impact the pandemic has had on the education of refugees and other marginalized in Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine. The combination of lockdowns, weak infrastructure, and gaps in distance learning limited support to teachers in public schools, Moghli stressed, produced “a severe setback of access and quality of teaching and learning for most vulnerable children.” Moreover, parents and teachers face particular challenges as they struggle to manage these new learning realities and the impact on students’ social and psychological well-being.
