Strategy
•Support Member States in preparing and implementing their National EFA Plans;
•Provide technical assistance for the development and/or reinforcement of National education sector plans for the achievement of EFA goals;
•Provide capacity building services within the ministries in charge of education and training as well as for the benefit of various national stakeholders;
•Assist in the mobilization of external resources for the reform and development of educational systems.
It all started in Jomtien, Thailand in 1990 when the participants at the World Conference on Education for All pledged to provide primary education for all children and massively reduce illiteracy by the end of the Decade. The education for all movement was born.
Six years after, the Mid-Decade Meeting of the International Consultative Forum on Education for All took place in Amman, Jordan (16-19 June 1996). The aim was to assess the advances made since the Jomtien Conference.
The World Education Forum (Dakar, Senegal, 26-28 April 2000) was the first and most important event in education at the dawn of the new century. By adopting the Dakar Framework for Action, the participants of the Forum reaffirmed their commitment to achieving Education for All by the year 2015.
In preparation to the World Education Forum, UNESCO Beirut Office organized The Regional Conference on Education for All for the Arab States (Cairo-Egypt, 24-27 January 2000).
Arab Member States have established National EFA Forums. The UNESCO Regional Office for Education in the Arab States – Beirut was trusted with leading the EFA movement in the Arab Region with ARABEFA as the follow-up mechanism for the Region.
The UNESCO-Beirut Office and UNESCO Offices in the Region have supported the efforts of Arab States in preparing their National EFA Plans in accordance with the Dakar Framework for Action adopted by the World Education Forum (2000) and the Arab Framework for Action to Meet Basic Learning Needs during the years 2000-2010. Both frameworks had set 2002 as the deadline for the preparation of the National Plans.
The Arab Regional Conference on “EFA National Plans: What actions next?” (Beirut, Lebanon, 20-23 January 2004) aimed at drawing the lessons learnt from the national plans that have been prepared and at elaborating a joint Arab vision regarding the future steps to be taken at both the national and regional levels in order to achieve EFA goals.
