For Effective Coordination Online Meeting held with the Donor Organization

With the World Bank support, within the scope of the I2Q project Early and Pre-school Education Component, the works provided for the project – Consulting Services for Improving Early Childhood Education Institution Management Service and Enhancing the Quality of Program Across the Country are being carried out. The contract for 43 months is signed with the San Diego State University Research Foundation – SDSURF.

Other donor organizations are also implementing important projects for developing the early and preschool education sector. For effective coordination and to avoid overlapping on October 4, 2022, Tamar Tchkonia, the I2Q Project ECE Lead, and Ana Janelidze, UNICEF ECE Education Officer, held an online meeting. The purpose of the meeting was to issue the possible intersection of the activities to be implemented within the framework of the contract signed with the San Diego State University Research Foundation – SDSURF.

The important direction of the ECE component within the I2Q Project is a new remuneration policy for ECE teachers, as well as a systematic and robust preschool data reporting and consolidation mechanism establishment and incorporation with the EMIS systems to strengthen intra- and intersectoral coordination for ECE.
