COVID-19 barriers to girls' school return

COVID-19

Responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and the projected educational losses among marginalized communities, from October 2020 – March 2021, AMPLIFY Girls undertook a four-country study in Eastern Africa to center the voices of local organizations and the girls they serve. Understanding challenges from a local perspective is paramount to creating effective strategies to support adolescent girls.

AMPLIFY Girls' community-driven research focused on:

  1. Establishing comprehensive empirical evidence on the barriers to school return among adolescent girls following prolonged school closures occasioned by the coronavirus pandemic.
  2. Identifying promising best practices in locally-driven remote learning strategies in East Africa.
