This is what transformation looks like in education! Between 2018 and 2022, the annual school census reports over 98% increase in enrolment in senior secondary school (SSS), 400% increase in students in SSS who took exams, and 200% increase in pass rates at SSS transition exams.

To shape our future, bilateral/multilateral partnerships must be based on trust, respect, balanced power, + open knowledge exchange. My team and I are in Accra with the Ministry of Education, Ghana, and partners, Right to Play to deep dive in play-based learning, assessments, etc

@LiesbetSteer Congratulations, @LiesbetSteer !

Very grateful for the privilege and opportunity to serve in this new role! Happy New Year!

We must continue to ensure the effective follow-up of the outcomes of the Youth Declaration to support young people’s collective views, recommendations, and commitments to #TransformingEducation 🙌

A Paris, le Partenariat Mondial pour l’Éducation (GPE) a décidé de maintenir le montant des subventions aux pays malgré la situation économique mondiale difficile. Le Secrétariat du GPE a informé Haïti qu’elle est éligible à un nouveau financement de 64.5 millions de dollars.

It is a great privilege to serve as CEO for @GPforEducation. This week, I met with the GPE Board of Directors. I was inspired by our leadership’s commitment to working together towards the common goal of helping children learn despite compounding challenges. (1/7)

Great conversations today w/ Charles North, Deputy CEO @GPforEducation; and then with Leanna Marr @leannajoon of @USAID (and their leadership teams). We all agreed that to truly transform global education, we need new and different effective bi- and multi-lat partnership models!

With @GPforEducation support, 6,925 P1-P3 teachers in Moyamba,Karene,Kambia, Pujehun,Kenema,Bombali completed refresher training incl lesson planning and practice of foundational literacy and numeracy principles. This is in addition to 4,000 trained in Kono and Port Loko in Sept

By investing in climate preparedness now, we protect children’s #RightToEducation. And a better education will help to build the resilience of communities to disasters in the future. Thank you, @save_children and @GADRRRES for this important talk at #COP27 #CSSFCommitments

More and better financing is urgently needed to unlock the potential of education as a frontline of climate resilience, especially for the most vulnerable children. #COP27 #TransformingEducation #FundEducation

Education financing must reach the most disadvantaged. #TransformingEducation #FundEducation

A quality education helps people respond to challenges and seize opportunities to improve their lives and communities. Today, @GPEChair spoke at the #InnovationAfricaSummit2022, highlighting the transformative power of education. #FundEducation #TransformingEducation

Thank you, @SchoolMeals_ Coalition for the opportunity to speak at the 1st Ministerial Meeting. Providing children with regular, good nutrition is imperative for quality education. @GPforEducation is committed to ensuring that every child can learn in a healthy environment.

With the food security crisis becoming ever more urgent, school feeding programs are key to help the most vulnerable children. Thank you, @SchoolMeals_Coalition, for this important discussion on how education, nutrition and food security are connected. #TransformingEducation

Thank you, @nadjasthamer of @spdbt, great to discuss the importance of education for stability & gender equality. #Germany 🇩🇪 and @spdde are critical partners of @GPforEducation. With education in crisis, we must reinforce our efforts to ensure quality learning for all children.

With education in crisis, strengthening @GPforEducation and Germany’s partnership is ever more important. It was a pleasure to meet @EskenSaskia @spdde today and discuss #Germany's vital role as a global leader in #TransformingEducation for the most marginalized.

With support from donors like #Germany, @GPforEducation is #TransformingEducation for some of the most marginalized children. Education is the solution to many of our crises and the need to invest in it has never been greater. Thank you, @Bundestag for welcoming me today.

In #Dubai @RewirEd2021 the work has started today on #TransformingEducation with partners from Kenya, Principal Secretary for Education Prof. George Magoha and Deputy Chief of Staff @ruthkagia1 @StateHouseKenya with @htronec @GPEChair @jmkikwete. #RewirEdSummit #RewirEducation

@GPforEducation @RewirEd2021 @DubaiCares @dsengeh @UAE_innovates @expo2020dubai @audranlebaron @Dr_KarinaE It was a pleasure to moderate this distinguished panel talking about how #EdTech can help close the education gaps and reach the most marginalized girls and boys.

GPE has supported partner countries on #EdTech initiatives such as distance learning initiatives and support to teachers for distance & accelerated remedial learning programs. These are essential to foster learning equity worldwide, said @htronec at @RewirEd2021 #RewirEdSummit
