In 2021, a new challenge comes to the country’s schools: the return to school. After a year of distance education due to the pandemic, teachers face the need to recover the learnings lost during lockdown. In addition, there is a need to strengthen students’ social-emotional education and resilience, generate cross-cutting strategies to boost educational quality after a critical period, and integrate families into learning processes.

In order to face the return to class, Unicef Colombia and Click+Clack launch an accompanying strategy to get back to school after the pandemic. The strategy included the delivery of a new book from La Aldea, La Aldea: Historias para un mundo en transición, along with multimedia contents, and face-to-face and virtual training aimed at teachers for the appropriation and use of the material.

Impact: Between September and December 2021, ClickArte distributed 55,274 books La Aldea: Historias para un mundo en transición. 53,244 were distributed to boys and girls, 1,947 to teachers and 83 to PTA tutors. In addition, 1,435 teachers were trained under the strategy.
