#LEARNINGCONNECTS all of us, Beyond geographical limits and crisis.

The world is facing an unprecedented #crisis. The COVID-19 #pandemic is forcing country after country to enact stringent social distancing measures to interrupt the chain of contagion and save lives.

AN IMPACT ON EDUCATION AND TRAINING
Social distancing measures to combat COVID-19 have had a massive #impact on education and training, everywhere. Schools and training centres have had to close from one day to the next.

WE WANT TO HELP COUNTRIES
To help countries deal with this unprecedented #challenge and ensure that learning continues to connect individuals and institutions, we are launching a new initiative focusing on how education and training systems, businesses, schools, teachers, students and their families can adapt to the challenges of teaching and learning at a #distance, often using unfamiliar and untried technology and imperfect systems and infrastructure. Our campaign is mutually reinforcing with the UNESCO Global Education Coalition.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOUR STORIES
Over the coming weeks through our social media channels and Open Space we will be collecting your stories in the EU neighbourhood and around the world with a view to understanding the challenges being faced, the successes and inspirational stories emerging, so that we can promote the exchange of practice, tools and materials, and provide targeted expertise to see us through this crisis.
