SUMMARY:The Walrus Talks at Home: Education in Crisis
DESCRIPTION:For children who are refugees\, education is a lifeline. What does it take to deliver it? \n\n\n\n\nSAVE THE CHILDREN\, OXFAM CANADA\, REFUGEE EDUCATION COUNCIL AND WAR CHILD PRESENT \n\n\nThe UN Convention on the Rights of the Child affirms the right to education. Yet for millions of children who are refugees\, that promise remains out of reach. Today\, 5.7 million of them are out of school\, and the barriers grow as children get older\, limiting their opportunities for stable\, self-determined lives. \nAt The Walrus Talks at Home: Education in Crisis\, speakers from Oxfam\, the Refugee Education Council\, Save the Children\, and War Child will share powerful stories and practical insights on what it takes to help displaced children access education. From teachers working outside traditional classrooms to local educators drawing on community history and customs\, they’ll examine what it takes to support children in building a foundation for their future. \nAbout The Walrus Talks at Home\nInspired by our beloved national live event series\, The Walrus Talks at Home brings you the same diversity of expertise and perspectives in a streamlined digital format that you can join anywhere with a Wi-Fi connection. The best part? You’ll always have a front-row seat from the comfort of your own home! \nThese sixty-minute events feature thought leaders and industry experts talking for five minutes each\, offering different perspectives on topics that will spark conversation on matters vital to Canadians. \nWe strive to be accessible and inclusive.

SUMMARY:Webinar: New tool launched- Supporting wet nursing safely in emergencies
DESCRIPTION:Join Save the Children for a one-hour webinar on December 3 at 9 a.m. EST.  \nIn emergencies\, every drop of breast milk counts. Wet nursing is a proven\, life-saving practice that helps infants continue receiving the protection of human milk when their own mother needs time or support to establish or re-establish direct breastfeeding\, or when infants are orphaned\, unaccompanied – or temporarily without maternal care. \nWet nursing is deeply rooted in cultural practice and has also been shaped by historical and sometimes harmful power dynamics. The new guidance and the Wet Nursing Screening Tool emphasise safe\, voluntary and culturally grounded support. When approached in this way\, wet nursing can bridge temporary feeding challenges\, support maternal recovery\, and maintain access to breast milk while avoiding the risks associated with breast milk substitutes\, like infant formula\, in emergencies. \nThis session is relevant for frontline staff\, decision makers\, and policy influencers engaged in designing\, delivering\, or guiding maternal\, infant and young child nutrition programmes.  \nAttend here!
