Libya Ministry of Education Human and Institutional Capacity Assessment

USAID/Libya contracted SI to conduct a human and institutional capacity assessment (HICA) of the Libya Ministry of Education (MOE). The purpose of the assessment was to support the Minister of Education and his senior staff in restructuring the education system in Libya based on international standards and norms. While many aspects of the MOE needed significant improvement, the Minister identified six priority areas of focus for this activity: Strategic Planning and Policy; School Inspection and Supervision; Human Resources; Financial Management; Statistics, Monitoring, and Evaluation; and Information and Communications Technology.

Given the security and stability context and many challenges facing the Libyan MOE, SI conducted the HICA to identify and prioritize strategic starting points for closing the gap between the MOE’s ambitions and reality, as well as strengthening the delivery of education services in Libya. The HICA assessed the state of the education system and recommended practical steps for moving forward on the identified priority issues.
