WHAT IS UNGEI
About Us: Global Advisory Committee and Partners
Comparative, International and Development Education Centre (CIDEC)

CIDEC has long sought to use its research and advocacy capacity to support efforts to promote equitable quality education for all. With respect to gender equity in education, we believe that while much progress has been made in promoting and enhancing girls’ education worldwide, there remains much work to be done, particularly in terms of girls’ post-primary access and completion. We therefore share a strong commitment to UNGEI's values and mission including, enhancing girls’ access to and completion of quality education, supporting a multi-pronged and holistic approach to system reform, contributing to high-level and grassroots policy advocacy and resource mobilization efforts, and overall, to use our research, capacity-building and advocacy strengths to help remove barriers to girls’ education at all levels.
