Reversing Gain: The impact of COVID-19 on education in Syria brief

The briefing note examines the impediments of access to learning caused by the COVID-19 outbreak in northwest Syria, further compounding issues caused by conflict and years of underinvestment in the education sector in Syria. Save the Children surveyed 489 teachers in northern Syria to try and understand what they see and believe when it comes to the reasons that lead children to drop out of education and what would it take to bring them back.

The briefing note compliments the global report released earlier this year by contextualizing the impact of COVID-19 on education in Syria, and what that entails for hundreds of thousands of affected children.
