Key Information

Research determining how to make every cent of education funding work for girls. The research is published through a joint partnership with Malala Fund and the UN Girls’ Education Initiative (UNGEI). 

In 2021, we look back on a year in which almost every country in the world rushed to close schools to control the pandemic, and economies were brought to near-standstill. Increased pressure on education budgets as a result of this unprecedented crisis seems inevitable.
