The purpose of this consultancy is to develop new features and enhance the overall performance of the current ECW website to attract users, increase traffic and provide up to date information to ECW stakeholders.

Scope of Work:

The Education Cannot Wait (ECW) website educationcannotwait.org was overhauled in 2022 to reflect the rapid growth of ECW – the global fund for education in emergencies and protracted crises in the UN, hosted by UNICEF.  The new overhauled site was built to meet the needs of ECW’s growing audiences as a key institutional communications and advocacy digital platform, as well as a transparency and accountability tool.  The site’s Drupal content management system (CMS) has powerful functionalities to streamline external communication and increase the ease with which ECW communicates its messages and distinct brand, including key results and financial data dashboards, individual country profiles, as well as enhanced visibility for ECW’s wide range of partners.
