Education for Success

The Education for Success contract aims to address disparities in access to quality early secondary education for underserved populations, particularly in rural areas. The project focuses on developing and implementing a tested and replicable post-primary educational model tailored for rural schools. In addition, it seeks to sustain improvements in primary education learning outcomes achieved by USAID and enhance the capacity of national organizations to advocate for relevant policy reforms that support these goals. Administered by USAID Nicaragua, this initiative targets key educational challenges through collaboration with local stakeholders and emphasizes policy advocacy alongside direct educational development. The contract outlines clear objectives to both improve educational quality and institutional capabilities, ensuring that reforms are well-supported and sustainable over time. Contact points for further information include an A&A Specialist and an OAA Assistant within USAID, with the contract designated under NAICS code 541990 and posted in July 2010.
