EAC partner, the Global Education First Initiative has produced a set of infographics based on key messages from the latest policy paper by the Global Monitoring Report (GMR) on education and conflict.
Humanitarian Aid for Education: Why It Matters and Why More is Needed

With a growing proportion of the world’s out of school children and adolescents living in conflict-affected countries, education should be a priority for humanitarian and development donors. However, as this paper describes, humanitarian aid systems neglect the education of children and adolescents in countries affected by or emerging from conflict, and more and better targeted aid is needed.
