This publication assesses the quality of our education programmes in South Kivu, DRC. The evaluation utilises findings from interviews, focus groups, direct observations of school infrastructure and academic studies to gauge the effectiveness and relevance of our work in eastern DRC.

The report’s interim findings uncover tangible improvements in teaching provision and increased engagement with students. These improvements, we believe, help deliver additional benefits to conflict-affected communities - and serve to underline the importance of providing education in emergencies.
