Join EPD, MENA Forum, and MEI in conversation with Rene Celaya, Vice President for Humanitarian Programs at Sesame Workshop and Heidi Rosbe, Senior Project Specialist, Ahlan Simsim at IRC, to talk about Sesame Workshop and ICR's experience in making education work for children in conflict during a global pandemic. Ahlan Simsim—“Welcome Sesame” in Arabic—offers a warm and joyful welcome to early learning to young children across the Middle East, especially those affected by displacement.
