Education
At Corus, we believe there are five fundamentals everyone needs to survive. Having the resources and support to develop knowledge is one of these fundamentals.
Corus International collaborates with governments, the private sector, school systems, and local communities to transform education systems and increase access to technologies and wrap-around support services that can equip individuals with the knowledge they need to thrive.
Our approach to empowering future generations through education revolves around three strategic pillars:
- Education data systems to improve access: We build context-driven digital systems to gather and analyze data on student enrollment, student/teacher attendance, and resource distribution, so decision-makers can identify barriers and implement targeted solutions to keep children learning in schools.
- Technology for development: We design and implement a variety of digital information and communication technologies (ICT) to enhance access to quality educational content and support services. Our solutions offer greater flexibility and reach and are tailored to specific needs, such as mobile apps for farmers and digital ecosystems where refugees can find critical information and support.
- Local capacity strengthening: We work alongside our local partners, providing the technical assistance and tailored information they need to build on their strengths, learn new things and foster innovation so that they can achieve their development goals.
Corus leverages the expertise and decades of experience of its subsidiary organizations, CGA Technologies and Lutheran World Relief, to advance access to education.
These organizations specialize in the following technical intervention areas:
- Cash and voucher assistance
- Social protection
- Education policy and planning
- Positive youth development
- Monitoring, evaluation, research and learning (MERL)
- Development and dissemination of teaching and learning materials
- Digital coaching and mentoring
- Human resource management
