Influencing
Policy Replication and Mainstreaming
FAWE has been operational for 13 years and best practices
have already emerged from its various demonstrative interventions
on girls' education. Those interventions are fundamentally
for demonstrative purposes and are geared towards experimenting
and illustrating what works in eliminating key constraints
to girls' education. These are then used as the conclusive
practices and evidences to influence the decisions making
spheres for replication and mainstreaming into national education
systems.
For this, FAWE collaborates with ministries of educations
in most of National Chapters and facilitates regional sharing
fora and policy dialogue to ensure that:
-
Policy reforms and negotiations, at national and local
levels, are advanced,
-
Best practices are identified and documented as well
as replicated and mainstreamed in the main ministries.
So far, major best practices such as the TUSEME girls' empowerment
programme, the FAWE COE Model and the sexual maturation management
have already been or are still in the course of a widely spread
mainstreaming process throughout several sub Saharan African
countries. |
