The problem of education in Conflict Affected Fragile States (CAFS)
• 37 of the 72 million children out of primary school around the world live in conflict affected fragile states (<from 39 and 77 million)
•This is more than half of out of school children, yet these countries contain just 13 % of the world’s population.
•1 in 3 primary children are out of school in CAFS.

Rewrite the Future Goals
• Ensure quality education for 8 million children:• Access to education for 3 million children• Improved quality of education for 5 million more children
• Work to make schools safe and a key tool in protecting children affected by conflict.

Prioritization of education
• CAFS do receive donor support.• Donors do not prioritize education in CAFS as
they do in other countries.• Of Canada’s ODA to CAFS – only 6.3% goes to
education.• Of Canada’s ODA to LICS – 29.6% goes to
education.

Meeting our fair share…
• G8 members among worst offenders. Five out of 8 give less than 25% of their fair share of the external financing requirement needed for UPE.
• Germany – 17.7%• Japan – 15.6%• US – 13.5%• Italy – 2.4% (but note lack of data)
• Canada is meeting 61% of its fair share.• Some donors are doing well i.e. UK 99% and
Norway 153%, proving it can be done.

Progress to build on…
•Fragile states are high on the policy and advocacy agendas.
•EFA-FTI discussing establishing a fund to support CAFS.
•Innovations in financing mechanisms (i.e. Multi Donor Trust Funds in Afghanistan, Sudan)
•INEE playing a crucial role in networking, knowledge sharing and advocating for fragile states.
•UNICEF and Save taking the lead in new education humanitarian cluster system.

Save the Children is calling for…
• More education aid for conflict affected fragile states – with 50% of all new basic education commitments going to CAFS.
• Increase the allocation of education aid in humanitarian crises to a minimum of 4.2%. Also support and resource the Global Education Cluster.
• Make 2008 a turning point for children in CAFS.
