As large numbers of children attend schools started and managed by their own communities and\/or by nongovernmental organizations, questions have come up about the impact of such schools at large scale: \"Can village-based or community schools have a national impact on access to education, spur improved long-term development strategies and education policy, or achieve or influence Education for All? This book explores these and related questions, drawing on Save the Childrens experience with community-based schooling in four countries: Ethiopia, Malawi, Mali, and Uganda.The literature on community schools in Africa tends to be sparse, repetitive and highly descriptive with little or no sustained critique of practice. This book fills a substantial gap in the education literature and is particularly timely, given the current emphasis on decentralization and community involvement in education.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51823866642720,"sku":"NEW0387451064","price":59.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61ZEmCk8VjL.jpg?v=1781204208","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/community-schools-in-africa-reaching-the-unreached-0387451064","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
