The pandemic that is engulfing the globe has devastated some of the major industries that the countries thrive on. Of these, Education stands to face one of the greatest impacts it has ever undergone. Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has estimated that more than 1.725 billion students across the globe are having their studies disrupted by the wildfire of Coronavirus. With the massive closure of college and schools and indefinite postponing of major national level exams, the spotlight has been turned towards the future of education. Is there a precedence of education being walloped? If so, what approaches can be adopted to tackle a total shutdown of educational institutes? Is Covid19 worsening the societal strata which is already bad? What have the countries around the world learnt from this crisis and how better equipped are they to face a similar blow in the future? This article is a quick scan of all these questions, from a gender sensitive approach, that has probably been experienced by every single human on the planet.
