Global: Education for All in conflict-affected states

Conflict-affected fragile states (CAFS) are home to half of the world’s out-of-school population – 39,000,000 children – yet receive only one fifth of total education aid. This paper published by the International Save the Children Alliance argues that, although international donors have declared the right of these children to an education, and recognise the social benefits and protective effects of education, provision for these children remains a low priority for donors.
