The Together for Early Childhood Evidence (T4ECE): Consortium on Pre-Primary Data and Measurement in Africa initiative aims to make progress on early childhood education systems in Africa by supporting cross-country learning and a better use of data and measurement for decision-making. Phase 2 of this initiative was implemented between 2020 and 2023 under the framework of the Research Technical Assistance Center (RTAC) managed by NORC at the University of Chicago. This brief provides an overview of phase 2 of the Together for Early Childhood Evidence (T4ECE) project and includes lessons learned from this phase. The full Phase 2 report can be found here.
Please note that USAID’s Research Technical Assistance Center (RTAC) has concluded. The RTAC website will be decommissioned at the end of 2025. Some materials will be transferred to the NORC website and the USAID Learning Lab website in the coming months. However, we recommend downloading any materials you would like to preserve at this time.
