Strategy

From 2011 to 2014, three new strategic directions will ensure that more children enroll in school and receive a better education.

The Global Partnership for Education's strategy will achieve 3 objectives:

1. Increase support for fragile states
   Why is it essential? Over 40% of the 67 million out-of-school children currently live in conflict-affected or fragile states and are at higher risk of being marginalized.
2. Improve learning outcomes and quality education
   Why is it essential? 200 million children are currently in school but are learning very little.
3. Support girls' education
   Why is it essential? 36 million girls are still out of school and their completion rates and learning levels remain low; their participation in upper secondary school, critical to reducing birth rates and improving child and maternal mortality, is low.

Our strategy is based on the results-oriented approach of a Results Framework, which combines the objectives of our 3 strategic directions and core indicators to achieve them. Our drive for a strong results culture will ensure that all children have greater access to school, stay in school longer, and receive a quality education.
