GPE and IDRC
Expressions of interest for research on scaling the impact of
educational innovations
Deadline December 13, 2019 by 23:45 (EST)
The Global Partnership for Education (GPE) and IDRC invite expressions
of interest from individual organizations or consortia of up to four
organizations to build knowledge and capacity on scaling the impact of
educational innovations in GPE member countries.
The project funded out of this expression of interest will:
- design and lead action research on scaling across Knowledge and
Innovation Exchange-funded projects; - conduct additional research that engages multiple perspectives on
the processes and critical success factors on scaling education
innovations in GPE member countries; and - use findings from this research to produce practical and conceptual
guidance on scaling that balances quality, equity, efficiency, and
sustainability for education systems and outcomes in developing
country contexts.
The research component of the project should be guided by the following
key question:
“How can educational innovations be designed, adapted, and scaled to
improve education access and quality within GPE member countries while
maintaining quality, equity, efficiency, and sustainability of their impacts
and enabling transformative change of educational institutions?”
