[wanabidii] 2013 Education for All (EFA) Global Monitoring Report

As the 2015 deadline approaches, it is clear that considerable progress has been made since the EFA goals and Millennium Development Goals were established, but that the task is not yet complete. New challenges have also emerged that threaten to reverse some recent successes, taking the heaviest toll on the poorest and most vulnerable. Rapid urbanization is accompanied by threats from economic recession, environmental degradation, climate change, food insecurity and other factors. The Report will present new evidence to show that learning that is equitable – that offer an equal chance to all – is essential if young people are to acquire the skills they need to get work in a changing world. Equitable education can help people claim the kind of democratic change that will ensure development benefits all citizens. Education improves health and livelihoods, empowers women and other vulnerable groups, boosts economic growth and reduces poverty in ways that helps to lock in gains for generations to come.

As each year, the Report will monitor progress towards the six Education for All goals. It will identify countries that are unlikely to meet the goals by 2015. It will assess the options for framing post-2015 goals, paying particular attention to measurement of progress using equity-based indicators. The Report will also monitor national and international financing of education, assessing the extent to which progress in countries is being held back by lack of resources.
