- Solange Akpo, ANCEFA, for an overview from Africa.
- Cheikh Mbow, COSYDEP, for a perspective from Senegal.
- Discussion on the difficulties presented by the crisis and the exchange of experience, reaction to the messages of the speakers
- An exchange about the recovery, how to approach the reopening of schools in particular, how to better prepare for a second wave or other crises
