High impact, NGO-led education interventions are often difficult to scale and sustain if they are not fully embedded into existing systems. Working in partnership with governments offers a clear path forward, but striking the right balance across various roles and responsibilities can be challenging.

AVPN members Pratham Education Foundation and STiR Education – have significant experience in building successful government partnerships. They may also be joined by Dr Sarvendra Vikram Bahadur Singh, Director of Basic Education, Government of Uttar Pradesh, who – subject to his availability – will provide a government perspective on working with NGOs.

This webinar will:

  • Share experiences of different types of government partnerships
  • Investigate the conditions necessary to enable sustainable success
  • Discuss the case of partnership with a large state in India, including providing insight from the government
