About RECOUP

RECOUP is a partnership of seven institutions from UK and four developing countries – Kenya, Ghana, India and Pakistan – coordinated by the Centre for Education and International Development (CEID), Cambridge University. 

The Consortium is investigating how education affects the lives and livelihoods of people living in poorer communities in the South, and what policy interventions might best support them.  Established with five-year programme-funding from the UK Department for International Development (DFID) in 2005, it focusses on South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa – the two regions where the challenges of achieving the MDG objective of halving world poverty by 2015 are greatest.

RECOUP research is organised around three themes:  human and social development outcomes of education; economic and labour market outcomes of education; and the outcomes of various partnerships among government, aid donors and households.
