Africa/Global: Rich countries failing on education targets

This report from the Global Campaign for Education assesses the aid efforts of 22 industrialised nations belonging to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), and grades countries on the quantity and quality of education aid they provide to poor countries. The report finds that rich countries are still falling well short of the financing targets they set themselves. Rich countries need to back the Education for All Fast Track Initiative, and pledge enough resources to expand the FTI to all poor countries that come forward with credible and transparent plans for achieving the education goals.
