| Summary: | This Knowledge and Learning Note
discusses regional collaboration on education in the Arab
world. Regional collaboration on Education is arguably more
challenging, comparatively speaking, in the Arab World than
in other regions of the world. There are many reasons for
this which this brief spells out. In education, it is true
the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region had initially
made great strides after Independence in improving access,
equity, and completion outcomes. However, as far as regional
collaboration on education is concerned, national
policymakers largely worked to address domestic concerns
alone with only little external assistance, mostly because
the education sector was considered to be entwined in
national interest and identity. This brief offers current
trends and examples of the state of education in the MENA
region including examples of programs and main focal points
to achieve higher educational standards. |
