Resilience on Clubhouse

Description

Why is Resilience Important?
Resilience, as defined by USAID, is “the ability of people, households, communities, countries, and systems to mitigate, adapt to and recover from shocks and stresses in a manner that reduces chronic vulnerability and facilitates inclusive growth.”

Education systems have certain attributes that make them uniquely placed for building individual, community, and systemic resilience. In times of adversity, education retains high public value and demand, reaches populations at scale, and serves as a critical hub for information sharing.

USAID’s Office of Education recognizes the symbiotic relationship between resilience and education. A strong education system has the potential to improve individual, community, and institutional resilience, and resilient populations are best able to deliver safe, relevant, quality education and learning for all children and youth.
