Description Despite communities’ persuasive call, children and youths’ education and protection in emergencies are consistently underprioritized and underfunded. Before, during and after crisis of any type, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement components carry out a wide range of humanitarian, education-related activities, notably in support or in substitution of public authorities. The National Societies’ auxiliary role, organizational branch system and network of community volunteers make them uniquely positioned to identify and address educational needs and related child protection risks in local communities. However, they require more financial and technical support to strengthen their preparedness, anticipatory and response capacity. In the spirit of building a global culture of respect for IHL and enabling sustainable, locally led action, this side-event will bring together Member States, ICRC, IFRC, National Societies and global networks of key stakeholders in education and protection to: – underline the imperative of ensuring compliance with legal obligations related to the protection and safety of education communities and facilities; – share effective tools and approaches to guarantee safe, equitable and continued access to education and protection services in humanitarian contexts; – call for increased commitment and support to education and related protection of children and youth in emergencies.
