Bangladesh Begins Again: Education in Emergencies Community Call
September 17, 2024
Estimated time commitment: 60 minutes
In September’s Education in Emergencies Community call on September 17th, 2024 at 1:00pm GMT, Teach For Bangladesh will share with the network all that they’ve been experiencing during this intensely difficult month. We have all seen in the media how the student protests were met with a violent response, and then led to a change in government. The violence tragically took the life of an 8th grade Teach For Bangladesh student, Motaleb, who was participating in the demonstrations, which is just such an unimaginable loss for his family, the fellow who was his teacher, and the whole TFB community.
In conversation with Teach For Bangladesh, we will also reflect on how our collective efforts to develop students to shape a better future can help tip the world in a positive direction. Given all that Teach For Bangladesh has witnessed, the conversation will also mark two key moments in the September calendar - 'International Day to Protect Education from Attack' (September 9th) and 'International Day of Peace' (September 21st).

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.
