#SDGAction12345
Education Collaboration
Description/achievement of initiative

The SDG Philanthropy Platform is collaborating with IDP Foundation in the education sector. We are exploring the possibility of testing some of the key recommendations that will come out from the ongoing needs and impact assessment study of IDP's "rising schools programme," share key findings and recommendations related to the SDG for foundations to plug-in, do a joint dissemination of the findings, and hold education stakeholder workshop.

Implementation methodologies

On dissemination of findings: Before the main dissemination, a series of validation workshop will be done at some of the communities where the study was conducted. In addition there will be a series of community level disseminations. There will also be roundtable discussions and stakeholder workshops.
