What does it take to make education data understood, trusted, and acted on by the people closest to learners?
This question has guided the Knowledge and Innovation Exchange-Strengthening Education Data Systems (KIX-SEEDS) project since its launch in January 2024. This week in Kampala, the team gathered to reflect on what two years of work across Uganda, Burkina Faso, and Senegal has taught us. It takes more than technology. It takes building systems alongside communities; training teachers and education officers to see data as a decision tool, not a burden.
In Uganda alone, the project succeeded in
✅ Equipping 112 schools with digital data collection tools
✅ Training 200+ teachers and education officials in data analysis and use
✅ Designing real-time dashboards tracking attendance, WASH, learning conditions, and learner needs
Special thanks to our implementing partners: HISP Uganda, ISSP (Burkina Faso), and ESEA (Senegal), and to the Ministry of Education and Sports, Uganda, for their partnership and commitment to strengthening evidence-informed education systems.
