Description

–>

EOF supports improvements in the quality of education and skills programs, with a special focus on underserved populations, including the hardest to reach, rural populations, girls, children with disabilities, and refugees. It measures (and pays for) what matters – both core skills like literacy and numeracy, but also critical 21st Century skills such as socio-emotional skills, ICT skills, and other broader fundamentals of a quality education. It helps close the persistent gap between the skills needed by employers and those attained by today’s youth by paying for employment and retention outcomes.

For all the above, EOF pays primarily on the basis of the results achieved, ensuring that taxpayer-funded domestic resources, aid, and philanthropic funds are only used to pay for what works. This is a game-changing way to finance results in education. It is more than just a fund – it is a powerful new set of partnerships and way of working.

Together with our supporters, we believe this is the early stages of a much larger movement. Our approach is at the cutting edge of development finance, shifting risk to the private sector, crowding in private capital, and harnessing the capacity and capability of non-state actors, with huge potential to achieve better outcomes for children and youth around the world.

Purpose Of The Assignment:

We are recruiting a highly motivated intern to support EOF’s Learning & Engagement – Early Childhood Education (ECE) team EOF developed a joint vision with the LEGO Foundation for how outcomes-based finance (OBF) can support ECCE outcomes. As part of this joint vision, we have launched an ambitious initiative that will undertake a portfolio of OBF programs in ECCE to showcase the potential (and limitations) of OBF in different settings while leveraging our program portfolio to contribute towards an increasingly vibrant ecosystem for OBF in ECCE.

Description Of Assignment:

At EOF, the Learning and Engagement team coordinates the efforts for EOF’s active engagement in the global ecosystem for OBF in ECCE, and aims to contribute to this ecosystem’s vibrancy through activities in knowledge creation, capacity strengthening, and community building. The Learning and Engagement intern will support EOF’s Learning and Engagement team with various aspects of these activities.

The Learning and Engagement intern will report directly to the Head of Learning and Engagement, supporting the team in its collaborations with key stakeholders in the ECCE and innovative finance networks. You will also collaborate with other members of the EOF team.

  • Support the drafting of technical briefs, papers and presentations through desk reviews, drafting, editing, as well as the dissemination of these knowledge products.
