Research & Experimentation

We carry out research and promote innovations that have the potential to improve the level and distribution of learning outcomes in basic education.

Outcomes.
1. As a result of the research and experimental work of Uwezo, policy actors and practitioners have increased knowledge and awareness of interventions that could improve learning outcomes and make them more equitable.
2. The findings from the research and experimental work are used to improve educational policies and practices.

To make the best use of available resources, we plan to support research and innovations aimed at improving literacy and numeracy competencies. In some of these, our citizen volunteers and their local communities can play a significant part. But we shall also be open to support innovations initiated by schools or our partners which demonstrate best practice or have potential to improve children’s learning outcomes. The activities planned for this goal, as described below, will not necessarily be implemented in all three countries.
