Description:
The second in the new GEM Report series, the 2017/8 Report continues
its assessment of progress towards the Sustainable Development Goal on
education (SDG 4) and its 10 targets.
The Report also investigates accountability-related issues in education,
analyzing how all relevant actors – the international community, government,
teachers, schools, parents, students, civil society and businesses – can
provide education more effectively, efficiently and equitably and address
global commitments to SDG 4.
By analyzing which accounting policies and practices are more effective
than others, and the political, economic and social conditions that facilitate
the effectiveness of accountability mechanisms, the 2017/8 GEM Report
concludes with concrete recommendations for policy-makers working in
the sector.
