REACH Events

REACH hosts a variety of events each year, including roundtable discussions, workshops, and panels, with the aim of educating people about the potential of results-based financing as well as capturing knowledge on the approach. It brings together experts to share their knowledge and experience in the field, and trains World Bank teams to leverage the strategy to achieve better results in education outcomes.
