Ultimately, when the vision is achieved, individual children and youth will equitably learn
and build holistic development competences for their well-being; families and
households will emerge as mini-ecosystems where children and youth achieve their
aspirations and thrive; systems and structures in East Africa will produce equitable,
quality learning and training outcomes for children and youth, and above all, the African
society will be like one large household, where people are happy and empowered, and
where competencies and skills drive access to opportunities and thriving for all.
To achieve this, a strong evidence base will be a firm foundation for both policy change
and improved practice, to accelerate holistic development outcomes of learning and
training. Thus, three wheels will have to move in synchrony, supported by eight
strategies to reach the desired end.
