The development objective of Advancing Innovative Methods to Promote Learning (AIM4Learning) in Eastern and Southern Africa MPA Program Project is to increase equitable access and improve learning outcomes in basic education in Eastern and Southern Africa. The MPA introduces a new multisectoral, innovative framework that leverages cost-effective solutions, including digital technology, to reach both in-school and out-of-school children. The approach draws on a growing body of evidence that shaped the World Bank’s AFE Education Business Plan’s focus on four major intervention areas. These actions make up the pillars of the MPA as follows: Pillar 1 - Transforming Learning Spaces to provide students and teachers a healthy, and empowering learning environment, will help countries expand their school networks and bring schools closer to homes; Pillar 2 - Empowering a skilled and motivated workforce of educators, aims to hire and deploy systems must be improved to attract the best talent and properly allocate new teachers where they are most needed; Pillar 3 - Strengthening systems, supports countries to make their education systems more coherent and aligned towards learning; and Pillar 4 - Building Cross-Country Collaboration to maximize the benefits of cooperation and realize economies of scale, will support a collective approach to developing solutions to the common challenges countries face in improving education outcomes. The World Bank will leverage its global expertise and experience in designing and implementing education programs, both in AFE and globally.Increase equitable access and improve learning outcomes in basic education in Eastern and Southern Africa. |
