Country: Cameroon, Chad, Kenya, Iraq, Malawi, Malaysia, Mexico, Pakistan, Rwanda, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Uganda, Yemen

EAC, in partnership with UNHCR, builds on their previous successful collaborations, to roll out their fourth partnership project to provide access to quality primary education for OOSC. The project is consistent with UNHCR’s education strategy- inclusion of all children into national systems- and is fully aligned with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4. The project primarily focuses on refugees and, in a few specific countries, internally displaced populations (IDPs), it also includes local populations as per the approach consistent with the Global Compact on Refugees.
In three years (2020-2022), this partnership project, aims to enrol 364,857 OOSC across 14 countries, which include ten of the 12 countries from the previous projects (Chad, Kenya [Dadaab and Kakuma], Malaysia, Pakistan, Rwanda, South Sudan, Sudan, Uganda, Syria and Yemen) and four new countries namely Cameroon, Iraq, Malawi and Mexico.
