The International Education Funders Group (IEFG) is an affinity network of foundations and donor-advised funds that support basic education in the Global South (low and middle-income countries). Our interests cover early childhood through to tertiary education, as well as non-formal education, youth and skills, and adult education. Much of our work aims to support the education targets set out in the Sustainable Development Goals and Education 2030.We are a peer-led, member-driven group, focused primarily on co-learning, information exchange and networking, trying to collectively strengthen our members' work and knowledge of the field. The IEFG does not seek to directly influence education policy agendas and spaces. Its purpose is to help private funders have a stronger voice and impact in education by improving their strategic analyses and thinking, informing and assisting their grantmaking, and providing opportunities for collective learning and action.Our Secretariat (based across different time zones) works closely with a steering committee made up of IEFG members who volunteer their time and expertise to guide our programmes and initiatives.
