Bar ama Baro (BAB, "Teach or Learn") EMIS

The “Bar Ama Baro” (“Teach or Learn” in Somali) project targets Somali out-of-school children and youth ages 8 to 15 to increase student enrollment, create safe learning spaces and improve literacy, numeracy and socio-emotional skills. Bar Ama Baro builds on Somalia’s new national curriculum, Education Sector Strategic Plan, and National Development Plan-9 which lay out a stronger, inclusive vision for education.

CGA is responsible for developing the digital Education Management Information System (EMIS) for both Federal and Sub-Federal Ministries of Education. This will optimise the collection of data on schools and centres, analysis, and utilisation of data around enrolment, retention, completion and achievement of the Alternative Education Programme (AEP). Through this we will develop school and AEP centre profiles, coordinate with the Project’s M&E team and ensure the availability of near real time reporting for the Somali Education Authorities.
