A strong, well-supported teacher workforce is critical for delivering education in conflict and displacement settings. Strong pre- and in-service teacher professional development and ongoing attention to teacher well-being are essential for such a teacher workforce.
This brief reviews the evidence on teacher professional development and well-being in conflict-affected and displacement contexts, though some guidance may have implications for fragile settings more widely.
A companion brief focuses on teacher planning, recruitment, deployment, and remuneration in conflict-affected and displacement settings. Notably, many of these factors, particularly remuneration, contribute to teacher well-being.
This paper is part of a series on evidence for education system transformation.
