A Framework For Scaling Education Interventions In Pakistan: Enablers, Barriers, And Embedding GESI
Dr Laraib Niaz & Professor Pauline Rose
Summary
The Data and Research in Education-Research Consortium (DARE-RC) aims to understand the challenges facing Pakistan’s education system and to expand the existing evidence base that explores potential solutions to these issues.
The consortium undertakes three main activities to support these aims:
Strengthening of high-quality research on what works to improve education
Promoting in-country research capacity building
Enhancing stakeholder engagement, communication, and dissemination of findings.
The report on which this policy brief is based contributes to DARE-RC’s aims by presenting a comprehensive scoping of scalable education interventions in Pakistan. The review, conducted by the REAL Centre at the University of Cambridge, explores the enablers of and barriers to scaling, and identifies the conditions under which education interventions can be sustainably scaled while embedding gender, equality, and social inclusion (GESI), to achieve equitable and systemic impact.
The report on which this brief is based draws on insights obtained from project evaluations and key informant interviews.
