Assessing Government – NGO’s Partnerships in Community Based Education in Egypt- A Case Study
Abstract
The study evaluates the partnership between the Egyptian Ministry of Education (MOE) and WHI as an NGO working in the field of community based education.
The research is an exploratory case study classified into two parts; the first deals with the international and Egyptian endeavors towards supporting community based education. The second focuses on evaluating the partnership with an NGO, through holding two expert group discussions, and designing questionnaires to investigate partners’ perception of project effectiveness.
Some of the main findings are represented in: the ambiguity revolving the role and authority of the association, almost complete absence of clear criteria for accountability, and the marginal role the association played in designing and altering educational curriculums to suit local needs,
In developing countries there is no clear assessment of any reform endeavors applied; accordingly, no clear criteria for accountability. Thus he study contributes to identify the main shortcomings in the partnership discussed in order to end up with clear insight regarding the expected role from each partner to sustain and improve this project and similar projects.
Keywords: Partnership, Education for All Initiative (EFA), Community based Education, Ministry of Education in Egypt, NGO’s.
