Education Cannot Wait (ECW) and the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) have announced an expanded three-year partnership that will improve holistic quality learning outcomes and quality learning environments for crisis-affected learners in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Uganda. The new US$375,000 ECW Acceleration Facility grant to Schools2030, the AKF-led global movement for holistic education and teacher leadership, builds on two years of collaboration to improve teaching and learning in countries impacted by emergencies and protracted crises. "We are delighted to expand AKF's strategic partnership with the global fund for education in emergencies and protracted crises within the United Nations, Education Cannot Wait (ECW), to continue advancing holistic quality education in and through the Schools2030 programme across crisis-affected contexts. With ECW's support, Schools2030's unique ten-year commitment to local schools and communities offers what learners and educators need the most in times of uncertainty – long-term, flexible, and responsive resources that ensure quality teaching and learning can continue against all odds. Together with ECW, we look forward to co-creating new tools, resources and evidence that will support the most effective approaches to best support the world's 224 million crisis-impacted school-aged children today," said Michael Kocher, General Manager of the Aga Khan Foundation.
