Background: The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world's worst humanitarian crises and helps people to survive and rebuild their lives. Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the IRC offers lifesaving care and life-changing assistance to refugees forced to flee from war or disaster. At work today in over 40 countries and 22 U.S. cities, we restore safety, dignity, and hope to millions who are uprooted and struggling to endure. The IRC leads the way from harm to home.

The IRC is the recipient of a new, USAID-funded 5 year basic education program, named the Accessible and Quality Basic Education (AQBE), Afghanistan. The AQBE will support more than 200,000 children in both public and CBE education across 8 provinces to address key barriers and challenges facing equitable access to quality learning through:

1. Improving the delivery of quality instruction in foundational skills and the delivery of wellbeing support for students by educators.
2. Reinforcing community school management and family engagement to sustain access to learning;
3. Increasing the transition rate of CBE students into public schools; and
4. Sustaining equitable learning opportunities for all learners.

The AQBE project, under the leadership of the Chief of Party (COP), is housed by the IRC, but includes a dedicated Project Management Unit (PMU), who is in charge of ensuring coordination across the 7 AQBE partners, technical standardization for all project delivery, and transparency, accountability and reporting to USAID for all supported activities.
