This book analyses how the educational ecosystem undergoes a paradigm shift during human emergencies – be it natural, manmade, environmental, ethnic or a global pandemic like COVID-19. It discusses varied approaches, experiences, and the steadfast desire to share information, demonstrating the value of teaching and learning in difficult conditions.

This volume aims to build resilience and inspire young minds to persevere through challenging times. It explores the continuity of education during emergencies, various teaching and learning approaches, and the importance of maintaining a resilient attitude. Each addresses the cultural and locational specifics of emergencies, illustrating how education and pedagogy have made a global impact. They also examine a specific aim, enriched by cultural, geographical, and human variables, and how education and pedagogy aim to resolve these concerns.

This book would be useful to students, researchers and teachers working in Education, Environmental Science and Disaster Management, Political Science, Public Administration, International Relations, Peace Education, Psychology and Cognitive Science, Neuroscience, Sociology and Social work. It would also be an invaluable companion to practicing pre-service and in-service teachers and their trainers, policy makers, professionals from government and non-government organizations working in education and social development.
