Monitoring global progress towards education goalsIssues for the future Manos Antoninis Global EFA Meeting Muscat, 12 May 2014
Monitoring education goals since 2000 Progress • Independent monitoring mechanism (since 2002) • Increasing availability of data sources… (e.g. household surveys, learning achievement surveys, direct assessments of literacy etc.)… which allowed new indicators to be developed • Improved focus on reporting and accountability
Monitoring education goals since 2000 Challenges • Initial confusion over what should be measured • Goal 2: enrolment rather than completion • Goal 3: (lack of clarity) • Goal 6: inputs rather than outcomes • Continuing lack of data on key indicators • Lack of emphasis on equity • Insufficient coordination between data producers, especially at the national level
Looking ahead 2015 GMR • Nuance measure of progress: • updated projections to 2015 • evidence of acceleration: 1990s vs. 2000s • Equity: as in previous reports, present progress for different population groups • Openness: use household surveys for selected countries that do not have regular DHS and MICS
Looking ahead Post-2015 goals • Measurability: a shift to outcomes calls for clarity in • concepts: early childhood development, learning, literacy/numeracy, skills for work, skills for citizenship • tools • Equity: what indicators for global monitoring? • Openness: is ‘data revolution’ all about coordination?
