If you’re at #CIES2023, come hear CGD partners -@aphrc, CERT Malawi and IEPA Ghana - from the @CGDev PREPARE consortium discuss research results. Chaired by my colleague @RadhikaNagesh, today at 2:45pm
Very pleased that @CGDev could host @JudyWoodruff@JohnKerry for this important conversation. Thanks to both and to @NewsHour for offering these highlights. https://t.co/A1cebzOfO9

This is what solidarity looks like!Uganda said on Tuesday it had agreed to a request from the United States to take in temporarily 2,000 refugees from Afghanistan fleeing after the Taliban takeover. https://t.co/pUzr9kr3Kr
Great to see Uganda make this important and much needed commitment on domestic financing for education. But we can only really celebrate when Governments deliver on their commitments to young people #RaiseYourHand
As Europe's talent pool ages out, Africa's grows, presenting opportunities for mutual migration partnerships.

An insightful collection of viewpoints on how the education sector can get back on track with SDG4 by @GirinB@susannahhares@JustinSandefur and a host of expert contributors
Thoughtful but refreshingly direct, @GirinB calls out the collective failure to address poor learning outcomes in his recent essay on #SDG4.
In a roundtable w/ @CGDev@riseprogramme, sector leaders shared their reactions. Read the symposium of responses: https://t.co/YGEfTY2XwZ.
