Abstract
This Education Note presents the
findings from the first four Education Resilience Approaches
(ERA) pilots from the countries of Rwanda, South Sudan,
Honduras, and the UNRWA system in West Bank, Gaza, and
Jordan. The findings illustrate the facets of education
resilience and how it can be fostered. Education resilience
involves identifying risks and assets, protecting the assets
in schools and communities, and aligning education system
commitment to a resilience approach. Resilience matters in
education because learning and school success are not only
possible in spite of adversity, but also education can be
the vehicle to overcome it.
