Description
Elimu Yetu Coalition (EYC) is Kenya’s National Education Coalition, established in 1999 as the National platform for Civil Society Organizations (CSO), Professional groupings, Education and Research institutions and other non-state actors in Kenya’s education sector – to lobby for the implementation of Education for all (EFA) goals as articulated in the Jomtien Declaration in 1990 and the Dakar Framework of Action 2000. The coalition campaigns for the right to Education for All (EFA), and brings together over 140 member organizations. Utilising a rights-based approach (RBA) in its campaign initiatives, EYC focuses on mobilizing and harnessing the collective efforts of education stakeholders and local communities in Kenya and provides leadership to on-going efforts to make EFA a reality in Kenya.
