An online discussion will be held on 1 October to mark World Teachers’ Day 2024, co-organised by NORRAG and the Geneva Global Hub for Education in Emergencies. This 60-minute interactive event will explore UNESCO’s Global Report on Teachers, addressing the issue of teacher shortages in emergency settings. With increasing conflict, displacement, and climate-related crises, the discussion will focus on whether teachers are being prioritised, the challenges that arise, and potential solutions.

Experts from various organisations will present insights from their research and programs, examining the policies, politics, and practices influencing teachers' work and education outcomes in emergencies.

Key speakers:

• Carlos Vargas Tamez, Head of the Secretariat, International Task Force on Teachers for Education 2030
• Danni Falk, Senior Researcher, ERICC / International Rescue Committee
• Nina Papadopoulos, Senior Advisor, UNHCR

Facilitators:

• Petra Heusser, Executive Director, Geneva Global Hub for Education in Emergencies
