Myanmar UK Partnership for Education
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)
MUPE is to improve the reach and quality of education services in Burma and help prepare Burma’s youth with the skills they need for life after school. MUPE has gone through 3 significant changes: 1) ODA reductions in 2019/20 2) Covid19 pandemic in 2020 and 3) military coup in Myanmar in 2021. Due to those significant changes, the programme was reshaped with only two components remaining (with one not having financial contribution) at the closure. The funded component which lasted till the closure of MUPE was MEC (Myanmar Education Consortium), which was maintained due to its relevance to the changed context and the ability to respond to challenging context.

Girls Education Challenge (Phase II)
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)
This Girls' Education Challenge Phase 2 will enable up to 1 million marginalised girls (currently supported through Phase 1) to continue to learn, complete primary school and transition on to secondary education. A further 500,000 highly marginalised adolescent girls, who are out of school, will also be targeted to gain literacy, numeracy and other skills relevant for life and work. It is estimated that at least 400,000 girls will complete junior secondary school in the first four years of the extension. The extension will build on what we have learnt so far in Phase 1 and further deepen global understanding of what works for girls’ education, particularly during adolescence and in the transition from education to work.
