At the third edition of the Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (ICESCO) conference in London, Obaseki bequeaths the resounding success of EDOBEST to developing nations in search tangible learning outcomes, Crusoe Osagie writes
For many developing nations, the challenge in education is no longer the absence of policy ideas, but the inability to translate ambitious promises into measurable improvements in classrooms. Across the 53 member states of the Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (ICESCO), home to nearly 1.7 billion people, the urgency of fixing foundational learning has become impossible to ignore. Millions of children still lack basic literacy and numeracy skills, while governments continue to search for scalable and evidence-based reforms capable of reversing learning poverty.
