Technical assistance mission to develop and implement the geolocation of basic and post-basic schools in Burundi

The World Bank Group, through the International Development Association (IDA), and the Government of Burundi have agreed to set up the Project to support the improvement of early school-leaving skills (PAADESCO-Shishikara) in order to contribute, among other things, to the development of EMIS performance with a view to introducing the "Geographic Information System (GIS)" component. In order to strengthen and complete the work currently being carried out by the Education Planning and Statistics Office (BPSE) with UNICEF support to develop and perpetuate the EMIS, PAADESCO will target through this mission the geolocation of all basic and post-basic schools (approximately 7,500 schools) in Burundi, in addition to the nominative census of all teachers, including the Head Teachers, in basic schools.
