Research and evidence on education from 33 countries in Africa reflects rich diversity andunderscores the importance of tailoring solutions to the local context. Through this research, three key actions on education emerge as points of leverage for the continent: (1) Use local education data to make informed decisions that address country-specific challenges; (2) Direct education investments towards areas of high impact; and (3) Design implementation plans that respond to local contexts and embed implementation research for continuous learning improvements. African education leaders are invited to use this evidence-based framework to inform education policy decisions, invest in untapped learning potential and implement context-appropriate school improvements. By focusing on these three actions, African nations can create more equitable, efficient and resilient education systems that serve all learners.
