One year of checking schools

Mr. Dondon Parafina, Network Coordinator of ANSA-EAP, will present the accomplishments and lessons learned by checkmyschool this past year in a brown bag lunch (BBL) at the World Bank office in Washington DC on May 1, 2012 (10:00 – 11:30* AM EST).

Check My School(checkmyschool.org) is an interactive platform and a comprehensive database on the government’s education services that allows parents, students and educators in the Philippines to monitor school funding and report on any issues, such as teacher absence or misuse of funds. The project was launched by the Affiliated Network for Social Accountability East Asia and the Pacific (ANSA-EAP).

The BBL will be streamed live.
