This Guidance Note aims to stimulate thinking into the unique challenges facing children from marginalized ethnolinguistic communities as they re-enter school or continue with various forms of distance learning. Remarkable progress in the region on Sustainable Development Goal 4to “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education” has been achieved but is severely jeopardized by the COVID-19 pandemic. The more marginalized the child, the greater the threat is.
