Education Quality Improvement Programme in Sudan (EQUIP-Sudan)

The overall objective of the action aims at enhancing the ability of children and other vulnerable groups to lead socially and economically productive lives, and in doing so to strengthen their resilience and that of their communities. In doing so, the action will contribute to creating better living conditions, enhancing social cohesion, and reducing the risk of these populations being pushed into negative coping mechanisms, which include forced displacement.

Main objectives

The specific objective is to contribute to the completion of quality primary education of children in Sudan, with particular attention to the most vulnerable groups, including migrants, IDPs and refugees, especially girls, through the improvement of equitable access to quality primary education.
