USAID Education Strategy Progress Report, 2011-2017
US Agency for International Development
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) works in more than 50 countries to ensure that children and youth have access to the education and skills they need to be productive members of society. The launch of USAID's Education Strategy in 2011 set forth a clear, measurable agenda. At its core, the Strategy equipped USAID missions to deliver education that provides children and youth with the skills needed to succeed in school, employment and life. In 2016, USAID released the 2011-2015 Education Strategy Progress Report demonstrating USAID and its partners' accomplishments over the initial five years of the strategy. That report outlined how USAID's work in education strengthens education systems, uses data to inform its programs, and leverages the resources and expertise of partners to expand its reach. This report builds upon the initial progress report released in 2016 by highlighting ongoing achievements and progress. The accomplishments laid out in the following pages will provide a significant foundation for USAID's continued efforts to provide the world's most vulnerable children and youth with an opportunity to receive a quality education, contribute to their communities and succeed later in life. This report presents the results achieved to date under the 2011-2017 USAID Education Strategy. Building on the experience and lessons learned under the 2011 Education Strategy, USAID will continue to look for new and innovative ways of ensuring inclusive, equitable and quality education for all. In addition, USAID will ensure that its education programs support the Agency's goals of advancing U.S. national security and economic prosperity while promoting a path to self-reliance and resilience for developing countries.
