Johns Hopkins launches tool to track global school reopenings, teacher vaccinations

Johns Hopkins University helped build yet another tracking tool to monitor the evolving conditions of the Covid-19 pandemic — this one showing how schools worldwide are coping and recovering. Hopkins partnered with the World Bank and UNICEF to launch Covid-19 Global Education Recovery Tracker. The partners are using survey data to track the status of education and school reopenings in more than 200 countries and territories across the globe. They hope the data collected can be used by education and public health stakeholders as they make decisions about how to proceed with school programming as the world enters its second year of the pandemic.
