5th Africa Teachers Webinar Series: Supporting teachers to reach vulnerable learners
A new webinar series is bringing together policymakers, practitioners and partners to explore how education systems across Africa can better support vulnerable learners, through stronger teaching and more inclusive classroom practices.
Organized by UNESCO’s International Institute for Capacity Building in Africa (IICBA) and co-sponsored by regional and global partners, the Africa Teachers Webinar Series places teachers at the centre of efforts to deliver more inclusive and equitable education.
The fifth set of webinars, Improving Educational Opportunities for Vulnerable Groups, will take place over three sessions:
- 28 May (3:00 PM EAT) – Disadvantaged girls
- 18 June (3:00 PM EAT) – Refugees and internally displaced persons
- 9 July (3:00 PM EAT) – Out-of-school children
Across the series, discussions will highlight how teachers can adapt their practice, respond to diverse learning needs, and play a critical role in reaching those furthest behind, from crisis-affected contexts to learners at risk of exclusion.
By sharing practical approaches and policy insights, the webinars aim to strengthen teacher capacity and support more inclusive classrooms across the region.
