June 7, 2016, GESCI held its first Partners’ meeting in Abidjan to present its ongoing programs as well as the broad lines of its new strategy for 2017-2020. The meeting was also an opportunity for partners to present initiatives addressing major development challenges, such as migrant and and displaced populations living in situations of crisis, youth unemployment and illiteracy. We thank in particular the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), the African Development Bank (AfDB), the African Union Commission (AUC), USAID, the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement, (IEA) and Koulu Education Group for making such contributions. GESCI is always open to forming new enriching partnerships. It is currently looking for partners to support its ongoing programs and operations and to be able to respond to country demands. If you are interested in supporting and / or partnering with GESCI please contact us.
