Education

Gobin Global has extensive experience conducting cost-efficiency and cost-effectiveness evaluations of education interventions. Our experience in this sector includes working with global NGOs such as Save the Children on early childhood and
parent education including the evaluation of Lego Foundation-funded Playful Parenting ECD Programs in Rwanda, Bhutan, Guatemala, Serbia, and Zambia that included ascertaining on how they are integrated into the national and local systems. Gobin
Global’s education work with USAID includes performance evaluations of a national level program aimed to strengthen early grade literacy skills, a mixed-methods study for the community engagement component of a national level literacy program in Tanzania, and longitudinal, mixed-methods research examining student outcomes for Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs.

Gobin Global has conducted to cost-effectiveness analyses for USAID/Honduras, for the Sembrando Esperanza Activity (to improve education and reduce crime, violence, and migration) and the Honduras Reading Activity (piloting conditional cash transfers with an education program to improve education outcomes and curb migration). We also conducted a cost-effectiveness analysis of the USAID Doniya Taabolo Activity in Mali which aims to improve literacy, math skills, and service delivery systems, and expand parental and community support. In addition to evaluation leadership and design, Gobin Global also possess experience leading education system reform in West Africa, including the expansion of mother-tongue education in Ghana. As a resource organization, we also contribute our expertise to support the development of tools and guidance on economic evaluation through, for example, USAID’s Data Ecosystems for Development in Education (DECODE) Activity supporting local, national and regional partners to generate, use and disseminate evidence in collaboration with the USAID Center for Education.
