Reimagining Education for All in Africa

At current rates, about 20% of children in Sub-Saharan Africa will still be excluded from schooling in 2030. But, besides seeking to expand access to education, policymakers should contextualize, simplify, and democratize school curricula and teaching methods.

But while expanding access to education on the continent must clearly remain a priority, policymakers should also pay much closer attention to what and how children learn.
