The ‘Strengthening Education Management and Information Systems (EMIS) and Data for Increased Resilience to Crises’ initiative responds to the need for accurate and relevant education data and evidence in crisis contexts. UNESCO, in partnership with NORCAP and supported by Education Cannot Wait and SIDA, has conducted country case studies in Chad, Ethiopia, Uganda, Palestine, South Sudan and Syria to analyse recurring data challenges in crisis situations in the framework of the initiative. The objective of the present case study is to have a better understanding of the education data collection, analysis, and management processes in Chad. In particular, it is intended to outline gaps, challenges and potential remedial actions in this regard. The case study covers and examines approaches applied by the humanitarian community, development partners and national authorities.
