We are very excited to announce our partnership with UNICEF’s Learning Passport, to reach more children far and wide!
The COPE Disaster series was uploaded onto the Learning Passport online platform.
The UNICEF Learning Passport is a digital education programme that provides digitalized curricula, textbooks, and supplemental content across multiple languages. The education model was created by UNICEF powered by Microsoft in collaboration with The University of Cambridge to address the challenges children and youth face whose learning has been disrupted by crisis and displacement. The platform is currently live in 20 countries and with over 2 million learners accessing educational resources. The platform provides free and certificated education for children and young people across the globe.
This 1-year partnership includes the digitization of COPE’s disaster books onto the Learning Passport’s Global Digital Library (GDL) and East Asia and Pacific (EAP) Library as supplemental content. The Learning Passport’s technical team will closely work with the COPE team throughout the translation and localization of the content to maintain the integrity of the book series, message, and characters, enabling millions of children worldwide to understand and prepare for disasters.
We are both honoured and thrilled that the COPE books have now been uploaded onto UNICEF‘s Learning Passport online platform, which will enable millions of children worldwide to learn key disaster risk reduction messages, so they know exactly what to do in that split second, should a disaster occur.
