LESSONS FROM UKRAINE: SCALABLE APPROACHES TO OVERCOMING LEARNING LOSS IN CRISIS-AFFECTED EDUCATION SYSTEMS
Abstract
The full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022, triggered one of the most severe education crises in modern European history. According to UNICEF, approximately 5.3 million children faced barriers to education, including 3.6 million directly affected by school closures inside the country and over two million who fled abroad as refugees.
