Equitable Education Alliance (EEA)

Established in 2020, the Equitable Education Alliance (EEA) is a community of practitioners from organizations, government ministries, agencies, and NGOs who strive to push for a more inclusive and equitable educational system while enhancing the performance of existing equitable education organizations at all levels.

The Alliance convenes at least two meetings annually to discuss and improve equity in education through collaborative efforts. A total of 14 countries and 17 local and international organizations have participated in these meetings, sharing expertise to promote and foster equity in education systems through the four main areas:

• Legal Framework Policy Development
• Budgeting and Financing Mechanisms
• Delivery and Implementation Systems
• Monitoring & Evaluation

7th EEA Meeting Highlights

The 7th EEA Meeting highlights ‘Budgeting and Financing Mechanisms’ for more equitable opportunities in education from national to local level. The meeting consists of two parts:

• Public session
• Closed-door session (for selected EEA members)

The 7th Meeting aims to initiate collaborative opportunities, identify contact points for further development, and plan key activities for 2023.
