Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Using policy documents from the Global Partnership for Education, the World Bank, and UNESCO from 2013 to 2020, this paper employs textual discourse analysis to explore International Governmental Organizations’ (IGOs) relationships to education programs in sub-Saharan Africa. I argue that the nature of the relationship between IGOs and sub-Saharan countries is simultaneously unbalanced and determined by relationships of reciprocal responsibility. By focusing on interventions in Cameroon, Nigeria, and Rwanda, I find that the prevalence of the modernization model depends on the IGO and influences how they incorporate the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals in their education programs.
