Improving Children's Learning and School Participation in Developing Countries – What Works?
The World Bank’s Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) and the International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie) are hosting a panel discussion on the value of 3ie’s recent systematic review on education effectiveness for informing policies and strategies for achieving quality education for all.
3ie’s systematic review examined the impact of 216 education programmes in 52 low- and middle-income countries. It synthesised evidence on the effects of 21 types of education programmes on children’s school enrolment, attendance, completion and learning. This is the most comprehensive systematic review conducted to date on education effectiveness.
3ie’s executive director, Emmanuel Jimenez will present the main findings of the review at this event. The presentation will be followed by a panel discussion featuring eminent speakers in the area of education. The panel discussion will be chaired by Marie Gaarder, manager, Independent Evaluation Group, the World Bank. Follow the conversation live on Twitter at #3ieEducation.
