Recent Publications
In our research and through our partnerships, we strive to strengthen the evidence base of education and human development for children and youth in low-and-middle-income countries and crisis affected areas so that policies and programs may reflect rigorous and culturally grounded science. In collaboration with our partners, we strive to better understand what works (and what does not) so that all children and youth may receive a quality education and the opportunity to thrive, not just survive.
Below are some of our recent publication highlights.
