The Corona pandemic is having a massive impact on educational opportunities for children and youth. We are not only noticing this here in Germany, but this is the case all over the world. This evening we will take a look at the different challenges in India and Colombia in comparison. Especially students in the slums of the big cities as well as in the rural areas of both countries suffer from schools that have been closed for a long time, education in many cases does not take place at all, online classes are often not an option because there is a lack of all the necessary equipment.

We are looking forward to interesting information directly from India and Colombia, and we are also looking forward to your questions!

Resource Persons: Maitreyee Kumar (Dream School Foundation, Bengaluru, India) and Alejandro Moreno (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit, GIZ, Bogotá, Kolumbien)

This talk is a cooperation of DIZ e. V. and Colombia Viva e. V.

The talk will be held in English. If you want to participate, please register here.
