Regional Education Coordinator

1. Context

Around 2.45 million Syrian children (aged five to 17 years) are out of school and 1.3 million are at risk of dropping out. Schools in Syria have been subject to attacks, repurposed and used as IDP shelters, while costs, psychological stress and shortage of personnel are further drivers of out of school rates.

Barriers to accessing quality education have led young Syrians to lack foundational learning and vocational, life and employability skills required for transition to livelihoods. The learning gap of children and youth, if not addressed, is expected to have a long-term impact on their income potential, exacerbating a cycle of poverty for households and communities.

Through a Whole of Syria approach, NRC is in a unique position to operate across different hubs and ensure an education response for all children in Syria. Thanks to the contribution of several donors, NRC is implementing an Education Programme portfolio targeting children, youth and communities in urban and peri-urban settings who are unable to meet their basic needs or access learning due to a lack of quality educational and economic opportunities.

Underachieving students are primarily targeted for Child Education Pathways (CEP) and Youth Education Pathways (YEP) and a Better Learning Programme (BLP) is integrated throughout all interventions to offer psychosocial support (PSS) to displaced and conflict affected children and youth enrolled in education activities who are affected by the trauma of conflict and displacement. Through this work, NRC aims at supporting Internally Displaces Persons (IDPs), returnees, and host community children and youth living in Syria to have continuity of learning, increased access to socio-economic opportunities, and improved resilience, with a view of fostering the socio-economic resilience and social cohesion of conflict-affected communities through the implementation of a community-based education response.
