Assessing Pandemic's Impact on Global Education: Supporting Children's Learning

This act requires the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to submit a report on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on basic education programs. The goal is to understand how the pandemic affected children's learning, especially the most vulnerable, and to plan actions to support their return to school and access to education. The report aims to better direct educational aid in low- and middle-income countries.
Key points
USAID must assess the pandemic's impact on education programs and learning loss, particularly for girls, children with disabilities, and minority populations.
The report will compare academic outcomes in closed versus open schools and evaluate the effectiveness of distance learning.
The act aims to support children's return to school, ensure access to education for all, including previously out-of-school children, and strengthen education systems.
