Moderator: Mr. Nicholas Kristof, Columnist, The New York Times

The right to education in emergencies has also to be looked at from a development perspective, it should be planned from day one, as part of the development process and not solely as relief effort. Regrettably, the 17 Sustainable Development Targets (SDGs) with 169 associated targets do not cover the specific needs of education during emergencies. There is hope that the World Humanitarian Summit might provide a key opportunity to tackle this issue from a financial, policy and programmatic pespective.
