In Honduras, students and teachers in primary schools faced limited access to quality teaching and learning materials (TLM), particularly in Spanish reading. The existing book supply chains were inefficient, fragmented, and lacked sustainability. The Secretaria de Educación (SE) struggled with last-mile distribution, inconsistent enrollment data, and underdeveloped systems for managing and monitoring TLM logistics.  

In DRC, millions of children—especially girls—face barriers to education. Partnering with the Ministry of Education, we improved reading in national languages, trained educators, and engaged communities to boost attendance. Local approaches and national systems reform drove gains in access, quality, and equity.

Chemonics supported Georgia’s education reform by developing data systems, training school leaders, and redesigning funding formulas. This approach improved financial equity, strengthened school management, and enabled smarter decision-making—helping to create a more effective and inclusive education system across the country.
