International Finance Corporation (IFC),
a member of the World Bank Group, is the largest global
development institution focused exclusively on leveraging
the power of the private sector to tackle the world’s most
pressing development challenges. Working with private
enterprises in more than one hundred countries, IFC uses its
capital, expertise and influence to help eliminate extreme
poverty and promote shared prosperity. Expanding access to
quality and affordable education is a central element to
eliminate poverty and reduce inequality. In developing
countries, private education providers play a critical role
in the delivery of education, skills, and training that is
affordable and relevant to the needs of the labor markets.
The IFC education practice is developing four case studies
that showcase success stories in the IFC education portfolio
around scale, skills, affordability, and innovation. This
case study highlights how IFC clients have contributed to
meeting IFC’s strategic goals in education of: (1)
developing skills and enhancing employability of graduates
and trainees and (2) increasing reach and impact at all
levels of education. |
