UNICEF: Back on Track

Back on Track is an innovative programme designed to support and further international development work on education in emergencies and post-crisis transition countries. Our site is a platform for ideas, information, materials and discussions on current trends and issues in the delivery of education services both during and after conflict and natural disasters.

The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) believes that education can get countries back on track after a crisis. In addition to being a basic human right, education is a tool for recovery. It not only restores schooling and all its related benefits to affected populations, but also helps countries rebuild the institutions and systems destroyed by natural disasters or conflict.

In 2006, initiated by the Government of the Netherlands, UNICEF was joined by key donors and partners to create the Back on Track programme on education in emergencies and post-crisis transition countries.
