Iran

Background paper prepared for the 2021/2 Global Education Monitoring Report (GEM Report). Summary: Non-state actors have long been a central component of educational development in Iran. However, after 1979, the ideologically driven dominance of the Islamic State led to a significant reduction in their role. Since the 1990s, growing demand for education and limited state resources have led to a renewed expansion of non-state educational offerings, particularly in early childhood education, schools, and higher education. Furthermore, non-state actors are involved in civil society initiatives for disadvantaged groups, as well as in social and cultural spheres. Digital technologies have been particularly supportive of alternative and diaspora-based forms of education.
