Supporting Learning Recovery One Year into COVID-19: The Global Education Coalition in Action Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: UNESCO | Global Education Coalition The Global Education Coalition, launched by UNESCO, is a platform for collaboration and exchange to protect the right to education during this unprecedented disruption and beyond.This is the annual report of the Coalition, which builds on the inaugural report published in September 2020, and covers the activity between March 2020 and March 2021.  Statement of International Development NGOs of Korea on the Global Fight against COVID-19 Year of publication: 2020 Corporate author: Korea NGO Council for Overseas Development Cooperation (KCOC) The recent outbreak of COVID-19 has become a global crisis. Since the WHO declared it as a pandemic on March 11, we’ve seen an exponential growth of the numbers of confirmed cases and deaths across the world. No one can predict a peak or duration of the crisis at this point.As the U.S. and European countries with relatively effective healthcare infrastructure are also struggling with the pandemic, the magnitude of damages on developing countries would be unimaginable. It would be extremely difficult for vulnerable states to tackle the crisis by themselves. Now is the time that we forge international solidarity and find solutions together.  Shared Responsibility, Global Solidarity: Responding to the Socio-Economic Impacts of COVID-19 Year of publication: 2020 Corporate author: United Nations (UN) We are facing a global health crisis unlike any in the 75-year history of the United Nations — one that is killing people, spreading human suffering, and upending people’s lives. But this is much more than a health crisis. It is a human crisis. The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is attacking societies at their core. The IMF has just reassessed the prospect for growth for 2020 and 2021, declaring that we have entered a recession – as bad as or worse than in 2009. The IMF projects recovery in 2021 only if the world succeeds in containing the virus and take the necessary economic measures.In the face of such an unprecedented situation in recent history, the creativity of the response must match the unique nature of the crisis – and the magnitude of the response must match its scale. No country will be able to exit this crisis alone.This report is a call to action, for the immediate health response required to suppress transmission of the virus to end the pandemic; and to tackle the many social and economic dimensions of this crisis. It is, above all, a call to focus on people – women, youth, low-wage workers, small and medium enterprises, the informal sector and on vulnerable groups who are already at risk.  Human Rights at International Borders : A Trainer's Guide Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: United Nations (UN) | UN.

OHCHR) International borders can be dangerous places for migrants, particularly for migrants in vulnerable situations.
