November
Leading a team, or teaching, during a crisis is one of the most challenging roles there is. The pressure can feel immense, the emotional toll is high, and the threat of burnout and vicarious trauma is a constant reality. These demands can take a significant toll on us and our teams, and the responsibility to support and sustain our colleagues can feel overwhelming. So how do we foster resilience and cultivate a culture-of-care when everyone is under pressure?
Join this Education in Emergencies community call to reflect, connect, and learn together. We’ll unpack themes of disenfranchised grief and leading with empathy in the face of crisis. Come share your story, hear from others, and be part of this global community of educators and leaders working on the frontlines of emergency education.
During this call, we will:
- Hear reflections and lessons from Teach For All network leaders on how they’ve personally approached trauma-informed leadership.
- Share with each other practical strategies for building psychological safety in the workplace.
- Discuss how to cultivate a culture-of-care and peer support when working in crisis situations.
- Build connections with other people from across our global community who are facing similar challenges
This call will take place on November 11th and has 2 time options
- Option 1: 5:00am ET
- Option 2: 1:00pm ET
This call will be held in English, with interpretation available in - Arabic - العربية, French - français, and Spanish - español.

How do we measure student holistic development?
November 12, 2025
Globally, practitioners and researchers are advancing how we measure social and emotional learning (SEL). In this workshop, the Research and Learning Lab, with expert insights from a global working group, will share insights on how to better measure SEL. These insights will better equip educators with the contextualized data they need to nurture students who will shape a better future.

Join us to redefine how we measure student outcomes!

From Hidden Talents to Stellar Careers: Preparing Students to Thrive in the Future of Work
November 25, 2025
Estimated time commitment: 60 minutes
In this session, you’ll hear from two leading voices at the intersection of talent, education, and careers.
Dr. Frank Danesy — former Head of Human Resources at the European Space Agency (ESA), where he led astronaut recruitment, and Adjunct Faculty at Mannheim University — will share why recognizing students’ unique talents is a cornerstone of career success. He’ll explore how talent awareness fuels motivation, adaptability, and long-term achievement.
Pauls Irbins, CEO and Co-founder of Orbit8, will show how schools and counselors can transform insights about student talents into concrete pathways — helping students choose what to study, apply their strengths in meaningful ways, and thrive in careers where they can make a lasting impact. He will highlight how this approach equips educators with scalable tools to support every student’s journey toward a thriving future.
Objectives
- Connect with fellow educators and practitioners to reflect on the limitations of traditional career guidance and share innovative approaches.
- Understand how uncovering and valuing students’ passions and talents could lead to informed, motivated education and career choices.
- Explore strategies educators and schools could leverage to provide scalable, student-centered career guidance.
- Gain inspiration on how to support every student in discovering their strengths and thriving in future careers.

This 'EiE' online course is made up of 5 modules that address the foundations of emergency education, including virtual visits to explore teaching and learning inside real crisis-affected classrooms.
The objective is to build a foundational knowledge of EiE and to hear directly from students and teachers who have been caught up in crises. By the end of this course, we hope that participants will have a better understanding of how Teach For All network partners have responded to different emergencies, and learn more about the principles which guide our network’s approach to working in humanitarian contexts
This self-paced online course is open to all network staff members, participants and alumni.

The Teach For All + Oak Foundation Inclusive Education Course invites innovative teachers and teacher coaches from across our global network and beyond to join an interactive course focused on inclusive education for learners with disabilities and learning differences.
The course centers on who learners are aware (understand the social, political and cultural context in which students learn and grow, including cultural identities and systemic injustices) and how they learn (agency; taking responsibility for one’s learning and believing in one’s ability to determine a life path and impact others).
Through this course, we will individually and collectively reflect on Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy, Universal Design for Learning, and Metacognition to support us in creating reimagined and inclusive environments that allow every child to shine and create a better world for themselves and all of us.
