ADRA Europe held its first online Education Summit.

ADRA Europe carried out its first online conference, entitled “Education Accelerator”, on April 20th. This event aimed to provide a platform for an international and inclusive dialogue where people from across the world could contribute to a broad vision for educational excellence and equity for all children.

The conference was organised as part of ADRA’s global Advocacy Campaign, “Every child. Everywhere. In school.” and as a follow-up to the petition that has collected more than 1, 3 million signatures.

The Education Accelerator event engaged different relevant actors that explored joint solutions to ensure all children’s access to education. In addition, participants were invited to interact through online tools, thus contributing to this discussion.

The primary approach was how Faith-Based Organisations (FBO) could contribute to improving Inclusion in Education and Education in Emergencies. Experts, innovators, thinkers and decision-makers came together to explore and accelerate schooling opportunities for all children.

ADRA keeps raising its voice in favour of out-of-school children.
