This paper discusses the implementation of policies, programs and projects to improve education in sub-Saharan Africa. Seven areas of concern are identified: the national context in which the efforts to improve education are undertaken; the goals of donors, governments, and interest groups; the characteristics of program and project design; the governments' and donors' capacities to implement these efforts; project "ownership" the management and administration of project funding; and, the contribution that monitoring and reporting makes to implementation.
