Education in Emergencies Community
Join group
We are a global community of educators, local leaders, and allies dedicated to ensuring that conflict, climate shocks, and forced displacement never stand in the way of a child’s right to learn, thrive, and shape a better future. Beyond short-term relief, we cultivate collective leadership to build trauma-informed, crisis-resilient learning environments. We connect across borders to share practical EiE insights, exchange classroom-tested tools, and foster student leadership in global crises.
