EduAcción
This activity aims to increase primary grade learning outcomes through two approaches. First, EduAcción provides training to improve teacher effectiveness in literacy and math instruction and works to strengthen reading delivery systems by promoting decentralization in education, a cross-cutting theme of all of USAID/Honduras's efforts. Second, EduAcción engages municipal, community, teacher and parent participation in the creation of local strategic plans for improving literacy and math skills, community management of resources to strengthen local educational institutions, parental monitoring of instructive strategies and improved pedagogy for literacy. A public awareness media campaign directed at parents, teachers and communities will encourage them to actively participate in improving the quality of learning, making them aware of their responsibilities and possible actions to improve student achievement.
