Education in Canada
Canada has been a long-standing leader for education, and was one of the founding members of the Education for All Fast Track Initiative (EFA-FTI) in 2002. The EFA-FTI is a global partnership of donors and developing countries, multilateral institutions and civil society organizations, dedicated to ensuring that all children receive quality basic education.
The EFA-FTI supports the implementation of endorsed developing country education sector plans. This means developing countries are in the driver’s seat, identifying their own needs at the national level – and investing their own dollars into education programs, which is a prerequisite for EFA-FTI support. Typically, 70-80% of the costs of education sector programs are being paid by the developing countries themselves. This means that the EFA- FTI rewards governments who choose to prioritize education sector programs. by agreeing to “top-up” overall spending on education.
The EFA-FTI now supports 37 countries with endorsed education sector plans and has facilitated the enrolment of an additional 19 million children into universal basic education programs. Support from the EFA-FTI has helped developing countries around the world to decrease the number of out-of-school children, increase school enrolment rates, especially among girls, improve primary completion rates, and increase domestic investment in education – making it a wise target for increased Canadian investment.
