Synthesis of Findings from USAID Evaluations

A study to assess the quality of USAID-funded evaluations in the education sector from 2013 to 2016 and, based on a subset of these evaluations that met minimum quality standards, to synthesize findings and lessons learned for topics related to the Agency’s 2011-2015 Education Strategy. This study’s objective is to provide the Office of Education with a review of findings and lessons learned that may contribute to future USAID programming in three areas: (i) education quality with a focus on early grade literacy; (ii) workforce development and higher education; and (iii) access to education, especially in crisis and conflict environments.
