The third high-level meeting on schooling in the time of COVID-19, jointly organized by the WHO Regional Office for Europe, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), took place on 2 July 2021.

The TAG presented recommendations to a second high-level meeting in December 2020, after which it revised the recommendations for presentation to this third high-level meeting.
