for the Global Education Monitoring Report
UNESCO’s Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report has served as an independent platform to track progress against the Education for All framework. Going forward, the GEM Report is also expected to serve as an independent monitor of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal on equitable learning. This grant will support production and dissemination of GEM’s annual report tracking progress and gaps at the country and global level against agreed indicators. The GEM Report will serve as a credible and independent source of evidence for governments, donors, civil society, grassroots citizen groups, and the media.
