“Education must continue even during crisis”, Nersyan, 16

“Education must continue even during crisis” says Nersyan, 16. Along with several other Palestinian children, she told us about the formidable barriers that Palestinian children are facing when trying to continue learning. However, she reminds us that quality humanitarian programmes can make a difference and help Palestinian children to realize their right to education. 

Her testimony was shared during the European Humanitarian Forum (EHF), one of the world’s leading platforms for humanitarian dialogue. Held annually in Brussels, it brings together governments, NGOs, and frontline communities to shape more effective, inclusive responses to crises especially those impacting children.
