About Us

The mEducation Alliance is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization focused on strengthening the education ecosystem to bring wondrous learning.  We are particularly focused on the evidence-driven and sustainable role of technology in education to advance quality educational outcomes. Initially formed in 2010, the mEducation Alliance is the largest multi-stakeholder convening platform for government and donor policymakers, other investors, researchers, and practitioners to work together, particularly in lower-resource, developing country contexts.
