Education Support Program- Egypt

  • P Project/Program

? Activity Status: Unknown

Key Information

The recent political transformation in Egypt created both opportunities and vulnerabilities in the country’s education system. Fortunately, much progress toward improved education systems and delivery has been made over the past 10–12 years. The Education Reform Programs (ERP1 and 2) improved governance, learning outcomes, teacher and leadership practices, and the overall policies affecting the environment and management of the educational system. The plan also specifically aims to support processes that enhance the Ministry’s ability to respond to fragility in the future. Efforts will emphasize further increasing women’s participation in governance processes and girls’ access to and retention in school.
