This project aims to improve access to quality and gender-responsive education opportunities for children between the ages of 3 and 18 in Lebanon. The project prioritizes scaling up educational opportunities and retention in the formal public system, helps address gender-based barriers to quality learning opportunities, helps improve inclusiveness in teaching and learning environments, and helps strengthen the national education system, policies and monitoring in education. The project focuses on addressing the barriers that prevent vulnerable children from Syria and Lebanon from accessing educational opportunities. The project supports the Lebanese national education system and works with Lebanon’s Ministry of Education to strengthen policies and systems and improve its ability to ensure better education services and sustain increased and equitable access to quality education. The project aligns with the Government of Lebanon's Crisis Response Plan, particularly in terms of priority interventions for education and the education objective identified in the Lebanon Compact to scale up access to education and strengthen the formal education system. This project, the Education Access and Quality Learning in Lebanon initiative, is part of the national strategy of the Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MEHE) of Lebanon “Reaching All Children with Education for 2017-2021 (RACE II)”.
