MEC Monitoring the Education Sector in Afghanistan - 1st Quarterly Report June 2018
On 26th October 2017, MEC released the “Ministry-wide Vulnerability to Corruption Assessment of the Ministry of Education.” Based on findings from this assessment, MEC identified key areas of vulnerability to corruption and issued 66 recommendations for improving different aspects of education and bringing much needed reform to the sector and the Ministry of Education. These were subsequently refined into 113 more specific recommendations. The current follow up report is the first Quarterly Monitoring Report on the implementation of the recommendations.
MEC actively monitors the implementation of its recommendations, proposed reforms, and the anti- corruption efforts in the education sector, and uses this information to prepare a Monitoring Report on a Quarterly basis. In the first period of Quarterly monitoring, MEC has conducted Provincial visits to Nangarhar, Laghman, and Kabul. MEC seeks evidence including documentation, direct observations, and interviews in order to verify data and responses from designated focal points.
