The Helpdesk approach
EdTech Hub supports education decision-makers to incorporate the latest globally informed, locally relevant knowledge and evidence into choices related to EdTech.
FCDO Education Advisers, World Bank staff and UNICEF staff who work closely with ministries of education in low- and middle-income countries can request and receive short-term, discrete support from the EdTech Hub Helpdesk.
We work with requesters to support the “what” and “how” of EdTech-enabled approaches. We seek approaches that are evidence-based, contextually appropriate, realistic to implement, and cost-effective.
If you meet the eligibility criteria below, you are welcome to complete and submit a request form.
To submit your request, you will be asked for a password. If you have not received a password from The World Bank, Ian Attfield (FCDO) or Juan Pablo Giraldo Ospino (UNICEF), please make sure you contact them.
Alternatively, please contact the Helpdesk Team at helpdesk@edtechhub.org with any questions.
Eligibility to submit requests
- Helpdesk support is short-term and of limited duration, ranging from an hour-long conversation to a 15-page topic brief.
- You must be an FCDO education adviser, World Bank education staff member, or UNICEF staff member to submit Helpdesk requests.
- The Helpdesk prioritises support to low- and middle-income countries and conflict-affected countries and regions. The Helpdesk does not usually accept requests from high-income countries.
