On June 1, 2018, a policy roundtable discussion took place at FHI360’s Academy Hall. The purpose was to develop recommendations on social-emotional learning (SEL) in crisis-affected context for the new United States’ international education strategy. This event brought together practitioners, researchers, and policymakers to discuss the current evidence, implementation challenges, promising approaches, and innovative SEL interventions. These discussions helped inform the U.S. government’s policy priorities and implementation guidance on how to best improve SEL outcomes for children in crisis.
BEC was well-represented at the event, and co-hosted the reception with Mercy Corps and Creative Associates. We look forward to ongoing collaboration.
