About Education Action in Crisis (EAC)

Education Action in Crisis (EAC) is a non-profit organization that works to improve education for children and youth affected by conflict and crisis. EAC provides education programs, policy advocacy, and research to help children and youth recover from conflict and crisis and to build a more peaceful and prosperous future.

EAC was founded by a group of educators and policy experts who were concerned about the impact of conflict and crisis on children's education. EAC works in the states of South Sudan with hope of helping millions of children and youth access quality education.

EAC's work is focused on three main areas:

  • Education programs: EAC provides education programs to children and youth who have been affected by conflict and crisis. These programs provide a safe and supportive learning environment, and help children and youth to recover from the trauma of conflict.

  • Policy advocacy: EAC advocates for policies that support the right to education for all children, regardless of their circumstances. EAC works with governments, donors, and other organizations to ensure that children and youth affected by conflict and crisis have access to quality education.

  • Research: EAC conducts research on the impact of conflict and crisis on children's education. This research helps EAC to develop more effective education programs and to advocate for better policies.
