3 March 2022, 9-11am or 8-10pm GMT
On Thursday March 3, 2022, join us for the first-ever Global Symposium on Post-Pandemic Play. Led by a consortium of 11 leading researchers in play and learning from around the world, the symposium will feature discussions with important global researchers and practitioners in play and learning.
Hosted virtually by the University of Cambridge’s Faculty of Education, funded by BAICE, and supported by Cambridge’s PEDAL and REAL Centres, UCL’s CEID, BRAC University, and the University of Wollongong, this symposium has been designed to stimulate conversation and change in how play can be incorporated in global post-COVID work for young children and their families.
Close to 1.6 billion children have had their learning disrupted by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (UNESCO). As global researchers in Education, we recognise that play has a central, important and strategic role in how children can move forward. Play is therefore a highly conducive medium to help children cope with the challenges brought about by the pandemic, even as the pandemic itself changes shape and continues.
