Implementation Support

As the community of users of the INEE Minimum Standards continues to grow around the world, the INEE Working Group on Minimum Standards has developed tools to further support the utilization and institutionalization of these global standards.

Navigate the INEE Minimum Standards Toolkit

Navigate INEE Minimum Standards Toolkit Online - www.ineesite.org/toolkit.

The Minimum Standards Toolkit contains the INEE Minimum Standards handbook, training and promotional materials, including all translations, as well as clear, practical tools and resources to help field staff and Ministry of Education officials implement the standards.The documents in this toolkit are organised into two main categories:

Tools: includes short and practical guidelines, checklists, and good practices linked to specific standards. Many of the tools need to be adapted according to each context.

Resources: provides background reading and more detailed information about a given topic, including case studies highlighting how indicators and guidance notes have been contextualized to meet a standard in a context.

An INEE Minimum Standards Reference Tool is an easy to use pull-out tool designed to be hard-wearing and field friendly for when a copy of the Handbook is not at hand. It must not be used as a stand-alone document, and reference should be made to the full version of the INEE Minimum Standards Handbook.

View and Download Institutionalization Checklists

The INEE Working Group on Minimum Standards has developed checklists for donor organisations and government agencies, NGOs and UN Agencies, to assist in the institutionalization of the INEE Minimum Standards. It has also developed a checklist for inter-agency coordination within an education cluster/sector planning and response. These checklists articulate a variety of suggested actions that organizations can utilize when applying the standards internally and in bi- and multi-lateral work:

Read INEE Minimum Standards Implementation Case Studies

Case studies on the implementation of the INEE Minimum Standards have been developed which demonstrate their applicability to a range of situations along the emergency-chronic crisis-recovery-development continuum. These case studies serve as informational tools from which other users of the standards can learn and build upon. To view the full list of case studies, click here.
