Education and Humanitarian-Development Coherence

This white paper provides an overview of humanitarian-development coherence efforts within the education sector globally, with a focus on the U.S. government. It presents a conceptual framework that outlines both the drivers of the humanitarian-development divide and the opportunities for coherence, and then uses this framework to structure the mapping and analysis of U.S. government efforts on education and humanitarian-development coherence. The methodology for the paper included a background literature review; interviews with some 20 global, regional, and country-level U.S. government staff members between December 2017 and March 2018; and an iterative process of development of the conceptual framework.
