The Global Partnership for Education (GPE) Knowledge and Innovation Exchange (KIX) is a joint initiative with Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC) that serves as GPE’s evidence arm: a go-to source for evidence needs across GPE partner countries. A key part of that is the generation of demand-driven, actionable evidence and innovation to scale impact and strengthen education systems in low- and middle-income countries.
In the context of its extension until 2027, KIX is offering costed extensions to a carefully selected number of existing research projects, alongside new calls for proposals. These project extensions will build on the results from the first phase of KIX, allowing projects to expand the knowledge they are generating on a wide range of education innovations – and how to scale them effectively – and to deepen the impact and use of that evidence.
More information on each of the project extensions can be found below:
- A comparative study of accelerated education programs and girls’ focused education models in Ghana, Nigeria, and Sierra Leone
- Adapting and scaling peer tutoring for teachers and school leaders for equitable rural education
- Adapting, testing and scaling a proven summer pre-primary education model in Cambodia, Lao PDR and Tanzania
