The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded a $2,000,000 Project Grant under the USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas (CFDA 98.001) program to the non-profit organization Ared. The grant will allow Ared to increase its capacity to support the Harmonized Model of Bilingual Education in Senegal (MOHEBS) by developing bilingual educational materials and providing training for additional core primary school subjects. The grant will also strengthen Ared's technical, organizational, and strategic capacity to continue supporting Senegal and neighboring countries in improving education outcomes. The award period runs from January 21, 2025 to January 20, 2028.
The grant builds on Ared's prior experience delivering literacy instruction and improving literacy program quality through four federal grant subawards received from Research Triangle Institute and Counterpart International. Under the new USAID grant, Ared will leverage its expertise to enhance bilingual education materials and teacher training in Senegal, while also bolstering its own institutional capabilities to sustain long-term support for education initiatives in the region.
