Young people today, time to act now
This report summarizes a regional study on the status of adolescent and youth education and sexual and reproductive health in Eastern and Southern Africa. The region faces significant challenges including high rates of new HIV infections, early sexual debut, child marriage, and low secondary school completion rates among girls. Several global and regional commitments have emphasized the importance of comprehensive sexuality education and access to sexual and reproductive health services in fulfilling young people's rights. However, weak education and health systems, stigma, and socio-cultural factors continue to hamper efforts. The report calls for urgent action and coordination between education and health sectors to address the needs of adolescents and youth in the region.
You can't study if you're hungry Tanzania
The parliamentary delegation visited nutrition and education programs in Tanzania in November 2013. They found that 42% of children in Tanzania are stunted due to undernutrition, negatively impacting their ability to learn. While access to primary education is high at 94%, overcrowded classrooms and low teacher quality have led to poor education outcomes. The delegation recommends that Tanzania increase investments in direct nutrition programs rather than relying on economic growth alone to reduce undernutrition. They also call for addressing unofficial primary school fees and improving teacher training to enhance education quality.
A Prospectus for an East Africa Early Learning Challenge
An Early Learning Challenge fund could be structured as follows based on lessons from other funding schemes:
- The majority of funding should be through aligned rather than pooled programs to attract more donors, but a percentage should be pooled for management, technical assistance, and evaluation.
- A medium-sized central management staff is needed with strong technical knowledge and relationships to oversee programs effectively.
- Local input should be integrated through a partner organization on the ground to ensure responsiveness, while maintaining autonomy.
- Grantmaking should occur in discrete rounds with tiered funding to allow for learning and support both proven and innovative projects.
- Technical assistance is critical to make funding more efficient and allow investment in riskier models

Honest accounts?
This document summarizes Africa's annual financial losses to the rest of the world compared to financial inflows. Key points:
- Africa loses $192 billion annually through outflows like multinational company profits ($46.3B), debt payments ($21B), and tax avoidance ($35.3B).
- Financial inflows to Africa total $134 billion, resulting in a net annual loss of $58 billion for the continent.
- The amounts lost far exceed international aid received, which is less than $30 billion per year. For every $100 in aid, $640 is lost through outflows.
- Continued losses at this rate will drain $580 billion from Africa in the next decade alone
Kenya school report card 2012 pilot report
This document presents findings from a pilot study of School Report Cards (SRCs) conducted in Kenya. Some key findings include:
1. Over 98% of sampled schools held meetings with parents to explain the SRC process and select committee members to participate.
2. Participation of parents in the initial SRC meetings was high, though record keeping of meeting minutes varied.
3. Turnout for subsequent SRC meetings to discuss ratings was also high across most schools.
4. SRC ratings revealed variation in school performance at the national, regional, and county levels, with some counties ranking highest and others lowest in different performance categories.
What challenges exist for early childhood care and education
Strong Foundations recommended four areas to better achieve ECCE: 1) move ECCE up agendas, 2) increase public funding and target interventions, 3) upgrade the ECCE workforce, and 4) improve monitoring. However, progress has been insufficient. Six challenges remain: 1) ECCE is neglected in frameworks, 2) policy frameworks are weak, 3) financing is insufficient, 4) benefits do not reach those most in need, 5) quality is variable, and 6) monitoring is inadequate. To make progress, advocacy must be improved to increase political commitment and financing issues must be resolved by examining innovative techniques to increase domestic and international funding for ECCE.

Are our children learning? Literacy and Numeracy Across East Africa - 2013 r...KenyaSchoolReport.com
The document provides an overview of the Uwezo learning assessment surveys conducted in East Africa between 2009-2012. It finds that:
1) Less than a third of children enrolled in Grade 3 have basic Grade 2 level literacy and numeracy skills, indicating a continued crisis in learning outcomes across East Africa.
2) There are large differences in learning achievement among countries and within countries, with Kenya performing best and disparities between rich and poor households.
3) Out of every ten teachers in East Africa, at least one is absent from school on any given day. Trend data shows little improvement in literacy and numeracy skills over the last three assessment rounds.Test and study tips
Cramming for exams should only be done as a last resort since it is difficult to retain large amounts of information in a short time period. Some tips for effective cramming include eating food to stay energized but avoiding excess sugar, studying in a well-lit place with few distractions, keeping a positive attitude, focusing on the most important topics that will earn the most points, and taking short breaks every hour. It is also important to get at least 3 hours of sleep before the exam if time allows.

The Deloitte Consumer Survey Consumer Review. Africa: A 21st century review
This document discusses opportunities for consumer businesses in Africa. It finds that Africa's economy is growing rapidly, driven by a rising middle class as wealth spreads beyond elites. The population is young and increasingly urban, and digital technologies are allowing Africans to adopt new services. A survey of youth in four African countries shows they are optimistic, brand-conscious, and engaged via mobile phones. While challenges remain, opportunities exist for companies willing to invest and innovate long-term in Africa's evolving consumer markets.
Exclusion from-education-final-report
This document analyzes the economic cost of out of school children in 20 countries. It uses microeconomic and macroeconomic methods to estimate costs. The microeconomic approach looks at future earnings forgone by undereducated workers. The macroeconomic approach examines the relationship between education levels and GDP per capita. The estimated costs vary substantially by country, from 1% of GDP in Thailand to 10% of GDP in Gambia. For 9 countries with high out of school rates, the estimated economic benefit of universal primary education exceeds multiple years of average GDP growth. Overall, the findings suggest achieving universal primary education could boost economic convergence and reduce inequality between and within countries.

The goal is to help improve learning outcomes for millions of students on the continent through accessible, high-quality educational content.Youth and skills putting education to work
This document is the 2012 Education for All Global Monitoring Report which focuses on youth and skills. Some key points from the document include:
- There were 108 million out-of-school children globally in 2010, with the majority living in sub-Saharan Africa, South and West Asia.
- Gender disparities in education still exist in many countries, with girls facing barriers to education access. Adult illiteracy rates are also projected to remain above target levels in many countries by 2015.
- Poverty continues to impact education access and quality, with children from the poorest households having lower attendance and achievement rates compared to their wealthier peers.
Teaching and learning achieving quality for all
This document summarizes the 2013/4 UNESCO Education for All Global Monitoring Report. It finds that while countries have made progress toward the six EFA goals since 2000, none of the goals will be achieved globally by the 2015 deadline. In particular, it notes that 57 million children remain out of school, over 250 million children are not learning basic skills, and adult literacy has hardly improved. The report calls on governments to strengthen policies to support teachers and improve education quality in order to address these issues.
