Grant Description
On December 16, 2014, a teacher training program jointly organized by the China Funds-in-Trust and UNESCO (UNESCO CFIT Project) was launched in Democratic Republic of Congo.
The project is UNESCO’s flagship initiative to accelerate progress towards the Education for All and education-related Millennium Development Goals. Phase 1 supported eight countries including DRC for four years (see Record ID#53170). Phase 1 began in around June 2013 and concluded in 2016.
However, CFIT continued to support these countries between 2017 and 2018 with the implementation of Phase 2 (see Record ID#85129).
Phase 2 (Record ID#85129) was funded by $4 million from the Chinese Government in which $2 million was allocated for supporting the eight countries who participated in Phase 1 of the project (see Record ID#53170), and the remaining $2 million is to expand the project to include Togo and Zambia.
