=== Context ===
In April 2020, just after schools shut, we conducted a survey of 1,800 school leaders in the Global South and found that more than 80% of the leaders felt responsible to ensure the well-being and learning of students, but there were minimal programs available for them to acquire the required skills to do so. In response to this, we created Upya.
As education systems react to the COVID pandemic, we know that girls are at greater risk of suffering education losses during school shutdowns. To reduce these adverse effects faced by girls, we need leadership in schools who are sensitive to, and trained in, issues related to girls’ education. With this as our objective, we piloted the Kanya program.
