The closure of schools around the world in response to the COVID-19 pandemic poses an unprecedented risk to children’s education, protection and well-being. The United Nations Secretary-General, António Guterres, recently called on governments and donors to prioritize education for all children, including the most vulnerable, and, likewise, a Global Education Coalition was created to support governments in strengthening distance learning and to facilitate the planning of a reopening of schools.

Supporting the Development and Implemantation of Resource Mobilization Initiatives: The Gambia
A new document published by the WFP Centre of Excellence against Hunger Brazil showcases the path that led to a successful case of project proposal preparation, from the initial call to the final approval of a USD 16 million grant. The process was initiated by the WFP country office in The Gambia in March 2019, when the Global Agriculture and Food Security Programme (GAFSP), a global fund financed by the G20 and managed by the World Bank, was launched. The GAFSP call aimed at providing resources to scale-up agricultural, food and nutrition security assistance to fragile and conflict-ridden countries.
