Welcome to the PEER Network

The PEER Network aims to strengthen political economy analysis of education systems in countries affected by conflict or crisis and to support the development of critical researchers and practitioners in the field. We commission research studies that enable researchers and practitioners to undertake political economy analysis of education systems in their own contexts, and provide free access to online tools and resources to support and inform effective analysis.
