Djibouti Education Program (Projet AIDE)

Through Projet AIDE, FHI 360 partners with Djiboutis Ministry of Education (MENESUP) to improve primary education by strengthening education systems and policies. The project operates in all 100 schools in Djibouti and integrates gender strategies into all its work.

Projet AIDE has supported the MENESUPs planning unit to install and use a new sustainable education management information system (EMIS), known as Global ED*ASSIST, which now provides national, regional and school-level data at each administrative level.

The project continues to help MENESUP produce the Annual Education Data Report and to develop the MENESUPs capacity to analyze and report data for decentralized planning and management.

Projet AIDE has trained government officials, educators and parent-teacher associations (PTAs) to use tools such as FQEL (Fundamental Quality and Equity Level) and school report cards to monitor school performance and improve local decision making for planning and budgeting purposes.
