State-led implementation network for the Safe Schools Declaration

About the state-led implementation network
At the Fourth International Conference on the Safe Schools Declaration in Abuja, Nigeria in October 2021, Norway officially launched a network of states to mutually support and strengthen the implementation of the Declaration. The network promotes cooperation, assistance, and peer-to-peer exchange between endorsing states. It aims at strengthening state-ownership of the implementation process, whilst also providing an opportunity for States to receive support from a global community of experts, participate in exchanges, and discuss challenges in a confidential forum. By sharing concrete, effective measures to protect students, teachers, schools, and universities from attack, States can inspire and provide guidance to each other and other partners.

How to Get Involved

As an endorsing state, your government is invited to join the state-led implementation network. A key objective of the network is to support and strengthen concrete action in operationalizing the commitments within the Declaration. States are encouraged to nominate focal points from the Ministries of Education, Defense, Foreign Affairs, Justice, and other relevant ministries. Members are invited to participate in trainings and global discussions, share their expertise, and collaborate through an online collaborative platform.
