OSI Grantee Publishes Country-Based Articles on the State of Education Reform

The web magazine Transitions Online has begun a two-year project, funded by the Education Support Program, to increase awareness of various education-related issues. The Online Education Reform Snapshot Articles project will compile well-written, engaging articles from 28 countries that pay special attention to educational disparities and effective strategies for school reform. The articles, written with the lay-person in mind, will provide snapshots into the each country’s unique set of educational challenges.

The Online Education Reform Snapshot articles will examine social exclusion, accountability in educational systems and education reform, equitable and efficient state education expenditures; anticorruption and transparency; responsibility in governance and management; and open society values as applied to education. The authors will also present strategies for addressing these problems.

With the current state of educational reform monitoring in the target countries either inadequate, nonexistent, or too academic in nature, the project will use skilled writers to fill this gap and attract a wide audience. In the second year of the project, Transitions Online will revisit each country in order to assess whether or not progress has been made addressing the disparities and shortcomings outlined in the original articles.

The following countries (not in order of publication) will be covered by the project:

Afghanistan, Albania, Angola, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, China, Croatia, Georgia, India, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan, Liberia, Macedonia, Moldova, Mongolia, Montenegro, Nepal, Pakistan, Romania, Russia, Serbia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan.
