Abstract
Non-state actors play a key role in our education systems, schooling around one in five children globally. In South and Central Asia, almost half of secondary school enrolments are in private institutions. If there is not recognition, engagement, and support for all contributors to our education systems, many children risk being left out.
Commissioned by IDP Foundation in collaboration with Global Schools Forum and Oxford MeasurED, the All Hands on Deck action toolkit responds to this need by exploring how to improve collaboration between all education stakeholders. Through case studies, presentations, guides and facilitator notes, it is a set of evidenced-based practical resources which support better integration across national, subnational and regional education systems. The toolkit is built on four in-depth case studies from the Central Square Foundation in India, Lagos State in Nigeria, TRECC in Cote d'Ivoire and The East African Regional Education Learning Initiative. Each case study has been produced through consultations with experts including government representatives, non-state providers, researchers, and civil society organisations.
This session will introduce the All Hands on Deck toolkit and the ways it can be used by policymakers, CSOs, network organisations, education providers, and funders to support their unique needs. This can include helping to secure funding, building partnerships with governments, or forming coalitions across and beyond the non-state sector – as it is only by getting all-hands-on-deck working together in a co-ordinated way that every child can have access to a quality education.
