MEC Monitoring the Education Sector in Afghanistan - 3rd Quarterly Report Feb 2019
During this third active follow-up monitoring period, MEC visited three Provinces, Balkh, Jowzjan and Samangan, and conducted interviews, by phone, with representatives from the PED in Nuristan.
During the third follow-up monitoring period, August-November 2018, no recommendation is fully implemented by MoE and other relevant entities including, AIRCSC, MRRD and MURD, MOF and other Development Partners. From the start of the monitoring process, until now, out of 113 recommendations, only 16 have been fully implemented by IARCSC and MoE.
Taken together, MEC’s findings show that although MoE has begun its anti-corruption reforms, many of these are still more at the planning level, as opposed having been actually implemented. It is important to note that implementation of anti-corruption reforms is complicated by the need for cooperation from other Government and Development Partner stakeholders.
