CODE

Published purpose

The program aims to enhance the quality of basic education by improving the technical, administrative and management capacities of CODE's partner organizations in delivering quality education and literacy programs. Activities are designed to improve skills of teachers and librarians, better equip schools, increase access to culturally and linguistically relevant books to young readers, improve the publishing and distribution of supplementary reading materials and develop education networks. In Canada, CODE aims to enhance the awareness among Canadian youth and public of development issues in education. CODE is the host of the Canadian Global Campaign for Education that provides a forum for debate, information sharing and discussion among Canadian civil society organizations working to achieve universal basic education in developing countries and to mobilize support for Education for All. This is achieved through research, policy dialogue and public engagement activities on aid effectiveness, governance and best practices.
