The Minimum Standards for Education in Emergencies are guidelines and a general framework to ensure the provision of quality, appropriate, and relevant education during crises and emergencies. These standards, numbering 19, aim to improve preparedness, response, and recovery phases, providing safe and suitable learning opportunities, and ensuring accountability of those responsible for delivering these services.
Between 2021 and 2024, the Inter-Agency Network for Education in Emergencies (INEE) launched a comprehensive project to update these standards, which were first published in 2010. This initiative aimed to address missing or incomplete topics, enhance text clarity, and improve the format and navigation of both digital and printed versions to increase accessibility and usability. The updated version of these standards for 2024 was successfully launched in English in April of this year.
INEE is pleased to announce the formation of Translation Review Groups (TRGs) for these standards, 2024 edition, in Arabic, French, Portuguese, and Spanish. If you are interested in joining a Translation Review Group, please fill out the appropriate electronic form by August 30, 2024.
