The KIX Observatory on COVID-19 Responses in Africa’s Educational Systems collected perspectives of education stakeholders on the potential long-term impacts of COVID-19 on educational systems in seven sub-Saharan Africa countries of Burkina Faso, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Niger, and Nigeria. This policy brief summarizes key findings of the project. It is intended for international and national development actors who support education research, programming, and financing across Africa, as well as for those who focus on generating evidence to address educational challenges. It provides suggestions for donor and research investments into areas in which the selected countries require the most support to recover from the pandemic and build resilient educational systems.
