Global performance across component dimensions

Understanding fragile and conflict-affected states

Fragile and conflict-affected states (FCS) are countries facing serious risks of conflict, instability, or institutional weakness. In the context of GEFRI, these countries often experience major disruptions to educational infrastructure, delivery, and governance, making readiness more challenging to achieve and sustain. Comparing FCS with other countries helps highlight where global support, innovation, or humanitarian investment may be most needed to ensure all learners have a chance at a better future.

  • countries classified as FCS
  • Average GEFRI (FCS): (Std. dev: )
  • Average GEFRI (non-FCS): (Std. dev: )
  • Average gap: points
  • FCS average sits at th percentile globally; non-FCS at th percentile
This means: While FCS countries lag behind, the gap to non-FCS averages is less than one standard deviation. Some FCS countries outperform expectations, signaling room for resilience and innovation even in the most challenging environments. Gaps by component dimension help identify where targeted interventions could have the most impact.
