EdIntersect Begins Early Grade Reading Project in Malawi
From September 2022 through September 2027, EdIntersect will be working on the USAID/Malawi Next Generation Early Grade Reading Activity (NextGen).
This project will solidify and build on the progress to date of Malawi’s National Reading Program towards improving the delivery of high-quality early primary reading instruction in all Malawian primary schools. At the end of NextGen, at least 30% of Malawian second grade children will demonstrate grade-level reading proficiency in Chichewa as defined by the Global Proficiency Framework. In addition, at least 30% of NextGen’s beneficiaries will also demonstrate measurable improvements in English oral expression and in the essential sub-skills of reading in English.
