Edumetría para el Desarrollo

Edumetria for Development is an initiative launched by a group of professionals in Washington, D.C. who along with local allies in Colombia, provide high-quality math courses, test preparation, and vocational counseling for low income students in developing countries. We aim to create innovative and cost-effective educational models that help bridge the gap in educational achievement in rural and urban areas, while addressing socio-economic and gender issues. We want to improve the prospects of vulnerable students to access higher education and their ability to increase their employment opportunities once they complete their education. Our interventions are based on two main pillars: 1. In depth knowledge of the local communities we work with (we develop partnerships with local actors); 2. Rigorous design and Monitoring & Evaluation of our interventions.
