Ayon kay UNESCO Assistant Director for Education Stefania Giannini, aabot sa 24 milyong kabataan sa buong mundo ang nanganganib na mag-drop out bunsod ng epekto ng pandemya sa sektor ng edukasyon.
"The future of the generation is under severe threat. Prolonged and repeated school and university closures are increasing learning losses and taking a rising toll on the mental health of students," ani Giannini sa isang online forum kasabay ng pagdiriwang ng International Day of Education. "Even before the pandemic, some 258 million children and adolescents were out of school... in 2021, we must seize all opportunities to turn this situation around," aniya.
"We continued even as face-to-face teaching and class sessions were not allowed. And now we are strengthening the technologies side of education so that we not only cut down on costs but also become much more efficient in keeping in touch, in keeping abreast with all the development," ani Education Secretary Leonor Briones.
