Civil society organizations have risen up the global education
agenda since the international community adhered to the 'Education
For All' Action Framework in the 'World Education Forum' that was
held in Dakar in 2000. With the foundation of the Global Campaign
for Education (GCE) civil society advocacy has sought to ensure
that national governments, donors and international organisations
make the necessary efforts to guarantee quality education for all
children in the world. This book explores the strategies and
actions, as well as the challenges and impact of civil society
organizations in the achievement of the 'Education For All'
international commitments. It does so by specifically focusing on
seven national coalitions affiliated to the GCE. From Africa, to
Asia to Latin America the book shows how these coalitions work and
manage the differences between their different types of
constituencies, explores their varied tactics and strategies, and
explains their successes and failures after more than a decade of
coordinated action. The book also provides a concise and
comprehensive synthesis of findings from the distinct case studies
and offers a series of lessons learned that are vital for education
practitioners, academics, activists and policy-makers committed to
more equitable and relevant education systems around the world.
