Innocenti Research Briefs Augmenter la Représentation des Femmes Dans la Direction des Écoles: Une voie prometteuse pour améliorer l’apprentissage AUTHOR(S) Jessica Bergmann; Maria Carolina Alban Conto; Mathieu Brossard Published: 2022 Innocenti Research Briefs De nouvelles études montrent une association positive entre les femmes dirigeantes d'école et les résultats des élèves. Certaines études suggèrent que les femmes dirigeantes scolaires sont plus susceptibles que leurs homologues masculins d'adopter des pratiques de gestion efficaces pouvant contribuer à l'amélioration des résultats. Cependant, les femmes restent largement sous-représentées aux postes de direction des écoles, en particulier dans les pays à revenu faible ou intermédiaire.Cette publication présente de nouvelles connaissances sur l'association entre les femmes dirigeantes d'école et les résultats scolaires, et attire l'attention sur la sous-représentation des femmes dans les postes de direction d'école. Elle souligne la nécessité de poursuivre les recherches sur le genre et la direction des écoles afin d'identifier les politiques et les pratiques qui peuvent être mises en œuvre pour augmenter la représentation des femmes et étendre les pratiques de gestion de haute qualité adoptées par les femmes dirigeantes à un plus grand nombre d'écoles afin d'améliorer les résultats scolaires de tous les enfants. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 11 | Thematic area: Education, Gender Issues | Tags: education, gender issues, gender roles, learning, primary education, primary schools, secondary education, secondary schools, teachers × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Jessica Bergmann; Maria Carolina Alban Conto; Mathieu Brossard 2022 Augmenter la Représentation des Femmes Dans la Direction des Écoles: Une voie prometteuse pour améliorer l’apprentissage. , pp. 11.
Innocenti Research Briefs Increasing Women’s Representation in School Leadership: A promising path towards improving learning AUTHOR(S) Jessica Bergmann; Maria Carolina Alban Conto; Mathieu Brossard Published: 2022 Innocenti Research Briefs Emerging evidence shows a positive association between women school leaders and student performance. Some studies suggest women school leaders are more likely than their male counterparts to adopt effective management practices that may contribute to improved outcomes. However, women remain largely underrepresented in school leadership positions, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.This brief presents emerging insights on the association between women school leaders and education outcomes and draws attention to women’s underrepresentation in school leadership roles. It highlights the need for further research on gender and school leadership to identify policies and practices that can be implemented to increase women’s representation and scale high-quality management practices adopted by women leaders to more schools to improve education outcomes for all children. + - Cite this publication | Thematic area: Education, Gender Issues | Tags: education, gender issues, gender roles, learning, primary education, primary schools, secondary education, secondary schools, teachers × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Jessica Bergmann; Maria Carolina Alban Conto; Mathieu Brossard 2022 Increasing Women’s Representation in School Leadership: A promising path towards improving learning.

Innocenti Research Briefs Cash transfers – Past, present and future: Evidence and lessons learned from the Transfer Project AUTHOR(S) Nyasha Tirivayi; Jennifer Waidler; Frank Otchere Published: 2021 Innocenti Research Briefs Since 2009, the Transfer Project has generated rigorous evidence on the impacts of cash transfers in sub-Saharan Africa and has supported their expansion. The Transfer Project is a collaborative network comprising UNICEF (Innocenti, Regional and Country Offices), Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, national governments and researchers. It aims to “provide evidence on the effectiveness of cash transfer programmes, inform the development and design of cash transfer policy and programmes, and promote learning across SSA on the design and implementation of research and evaluations on cash transfers”.This brief summarizes the current evidence and lessons learned from the Transfer Project after more than a decade of research. It also introduces new frontiers of research. + - Cite this publication | Tags: cash transfers, social protection, social protection programmes × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Nyasha Tirivayi; Jennifer Waidler; Frank Otchere 2021 Cash transfers – Past, present and future: Evidence and lessons learned from the Transfer Project.

Innocenti Research Briefs Let Us Continue Learning: Lessons from Madagascar for improving access and retention of vulnerable children in secondary school AUTHOR(S) Marco Valenza; Cirenia Chávez; Annika Rigole; Andrea Clemons; Alvaro Fortin; Erica Mattellone Published: 2021 Innocenti Research Briefs Malagasy adolescents face severe challenges in accessing and completing basic education. Among those students who complete the primary cycle, one in four does not transition into lower secondary school. Economic constraints among vulnerable households coupled with low-quality education result in widespread dropout and poor learning outcomes.Acknowledging these multidimensional barriers, UNICEF Madagascar leveraged funds from the Let us Learn (LUL) programme to implement a two-pronged strategy to support Malagasy children in accessing and continuing lower secondary school. The Catch-up Classes provide out-of-school adolescents with a learning pathway to build the foundational literacy and numeracy skills they need to resume studying in formal school. Conditional cash transfers target families with children who are at risk of abandoning school after completing the primary cycle.This brief builds on programme monitoring data, impact evaluations and qualitative insights from the field to highlight lessons learnt and actionable recommendations for accessing and continuing vulnerable children’s secondary education. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 10 | Thematic area: Education | Tags: access to education, secondary education, vulnerable children × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Marco Valenza; Cirenia Chávez; Annika Rigole; Andrea Clemons; Alvaro Fortin; Erica Mattellone 2021 Let Us Continue Learning: Lessons from Madagascar for improving access and retention of vulnerable children in secondary school. , pp. 10.
