Co-funding Mechanism: The Co-funding Mechanism mobilizes and manages financial resources from various sources, including the public and private sectors, as well as international organizations. Its goal is to ensure the sustainability of initiatives within the Communities of Change and the EdLab by fostering collaboration among key stakeholders and ensuring resources are used efficiently to maximize educational impact.

Evidence Lab (EdLab): The EdLab acts as a platform connecting public and private organizations, facilitating the generation, mobilization, and use of evidence to inform policies and practices at both national and territorial levels. It bridges evidence-based insights with strategic actions and interventions within the Communities of Change. Additionally, the EdLab supports continuous improvement in Colombia’s education system by fostering capacity-building efforts and guiding the development of effective policies under the framework of the Research and Learning Agenda.

Communities of Change: The Communities of Change are territorial alliances, either newly established or existing, that build a shared vision and develop efficient, relevant, and scalable educational policies and practices. These efforts contribute to improving learning and educational outcomes at both the local and national levels.
