In this special episode of The Leader on the anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, we’re finding out how vital school supplies are giving Ukrainian children ‘the routine of a regular, normal day’.
In the year since the war began, millions have been displaced from their homes and schools. As of January 2023, 3,025 kindergartens, schools and colleges have been attacked and more than 400 destroyed.
The Evening Standard’s Kate Rice visits UNICEF’s giant warehouse in Copenhagen to find out how a simple ‘School in a Box’ is helping Ukrainian students return to the classroom.
Then we travel to a high school in Oleksandria in central Ukraine to hear 15-year-old Sofia and her teacher Valentyna discuss their experiences of the war and the difference these vital supplies are making.
In the #LetGirlsLearn series, we’re aiming to shine a light on innovations and solutions that are helping girls to fulfil their right to education and healthy, productive futures around the globe.
