This is the final annual report of the three-year prospective evaluation of the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) in Malawi – one of eight country prospective evaluations that will be complemented by a total of 20 summative country evaluations, to be carried out between 2018 and 2020. It follows a baseline report on Malawi, submitted in June 2018 and a first annual report, delivered in December 2018.

This report presents the findings of the final prospective evaluation mission to the country, which took place from May 6 to May 10, 2019, as well as observations of the education sector plan implementation grant (ESPIG) mid-term review from May 25 to May 28, 2019. Conclusions are drawn based on the data collected and monitoring and assessment undertaken during the evaluation period.
