The Aga Khan Foundation and Schools360
The Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) is a major international development organization focused on reducing poverty and improving quality of life in 18 countries, predominantly in South and Central Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and the Middle East, with a commitment to community-driven and sustainable solutions. AKF employs approximately 4,000 staff globally; as part of the broader Aga Khan Development Network, there are 96,000 employees worldwide.
AKF’s Schools2030 program is a ten-year, multi-country education initiative catalyzing teacher-led innovations in holistic learning. Schools2030’s mission is to empower teachers and communities to innovate in classrooms and improve learning outcomes, foster holistic learning, and drive evidence-informed policies for the world’s most marginalized students.
The Challenge
The absence of an integrated, standardised, and accessible data infrastructure limited AKF and partners’ ability to understand and communicate about the program’s impact on teaching and learning and to make informed decisions about program strategy.
