Pop-Up Learning
Giving access to learning for children fleeing violence
33 million children are displaced from their homes because of humanitarian crises. Almost 40% of those children do not have access to formal education. Between funding gaps, political challenges, and poor-to-nonexistent access to educators, it can take months or years for a child to receive adequate education. During this period in a displaced child’s life, education is critical to reducing trauma and stress, creating stability, and generating positive norms around going to school.
With thoughtful facilitation and the best autonomous learning software, we can improve education access and quality in emergency settings. Within weeks of crisis onset and at a low cost-per-child, Pop-Up Learning aims to deliver locally-relevant, tablet-based learning that fosters emotional support, literacy and numeracy for primary school-aged learners. Pop-Up adapts to the varying needs of displaced children around the world, including different educational levels and languages.
