The webinar will address the following pressing issues:
• How are disadvantaged families with children dealing with everyday challenges during the pandemic?
• What governmental and community action can help ensure proper schooling, nutrition and care for children and adolescents?
• Are educational systems prepared - or not - for the challenges of remote learning for students at every age?
• What kind of summer opportunities will be needed under the actual situation to allow children in deprived neighborhoods to disconnect, rest and be ready for the next school year?
• From what we have learned these past months, what needs to be in place to allow all children to thrive at school next year?
