Summary: | The Education Resilience Approaches
(ERA) program is developing frameworks and tools to
understand the role and impact of education in conflict- and
violence-affected contexts. This guide is for researchers,
evaluators, and planners supporting education policy and
program development in contexts of gender-related violence.
It outlines a conceptual framework to support the
collection, interpretation, and use of gender- and
resilience-related information. In addition, it also
includes how-to advice to think through crucial issues,
which may arise when assessing areas of protection for
people in all levels of an education system who experience
gender-related violence, as well as to promote improved
educational outcome. This guide is divided into two parts,
plus an initial chapter on general aspects of gender and
resilience in situations of conflict and violence. Together,
the parts present, respectively, core guidance on
gender-related risks and assets, and the ways that schools,
communities, and education systems can respond to protect
education actors from gender-related violence, as well as
contribute to mitigating the sources of such violence. Each
chapter has a list of core principles related to its focus,
along with recommended resources. In Part 1, chapters 2 and
3 provide a broad framework and specific multi-level
examples of gender-related risks and assets. Most
importantly, it presents a list of essential principles,
tools, and resources for researchers, evaluators, and
program designers as they conduct their own specific gender,
violence, and education assessments. Part 2 is focused on
institutional issues. Chapter 4 discusses the ways that
positive interactions between schools and communities can
prevent gender-based violence and foster gender equity.
Chapter 5 considers the education policies, programs,
institutions, and services that address the sources of
gender-related risks and craft solutions for positive
education outcomes. Examples of institutional practices
illustrate how a transformative resilience framework and
gender principles can be operationalized within the
policies, programs, and budgets of education systems. |
