Abstract
In this Brookings Education Plus Development blog, Council researchers Karen Austrian and Stephanie Psaki remind us that while the world has changed dramatically since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is critical that we not neglect the fundamentals and what we already know works to address gender-related barriers to education. The piece cites findings from Council surveys conducted during the pandemic in Kenya in partnership with the Executive Office of the President's Policy and Strategy Unit, as well as insights from the Evidence for Gender and Education Resource (EGER), an interactive database launched by the GIRL Center.
