This book provides an important lens for understanding how interlocking humanitarian crises caused by armed conflict, natural disasters, forced displacement and, more recently, a global health pandemic have adversely impacted teaching and learning.It brings together evidence from multiple, diverse research-practice partnerships in seven countries: the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Niger, Somalia, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda. The authors provide a clear account of the key academic, policy and practice questions on education in crisis contexts and consider our capacity to develop just and resilient education systems.

This edited volume chronicles the University of Notre Dame’s efforts to promote child development and learning systems amidst conflict and crises in Haiti throughout the last eighteen years. The book is organized chronologically, beginning with Notre Dame's earliest engagement with the Catholic Church in Haiti, to its most recent initiatives. Along the way, it weaves together the evolution of education systems with qualitative and quantitative evidence from improvement science research and randomized controlled trials, offering both historical perspective and data-driven insights.
