UNICEF Regional Office for South Asia, in collaboration with New York Headquarters, has undertaken the development of an education in emergency capacity building package for UNICEF education programme officers and partners in order to better fulfil UNICEF’ s Core Commitments to Children in the education sector. This manual, entitled Education in Emergencies: A Resource Tool Kit provides step by step recommendations and tools for preparing for and responding to emergencies. Coupled with the accompanying CD and workshop materials, it will assist country offices in their ongoing efforts to improve their preparedness planning in collaboration with partners in the education sector.
