EMIS Technical Committee meeting

UNESCO together with UNICEF met with the Ministry of Education’s Deputy Director General for Planning and the Ministry’s EMIS Technical Committee to discuss the development and rollout of a comprehensive Education Management Information System (EMIS) for Iraq.

The availability of relevant, timely and critical data strengthens government’s ability to improve education through evidence-based policy and decision making. Through its #EU funded EMIS project, the UNESCO Office in Iraq is supporting the MoE to develop and rollout a comprehensive Education Management Information System (EMIS). EMIS functions as a management tool to capture and utilize education data, for nationwide monitoring and improved planning, and more effective delivery of services.
