Decentralization of Educational Management in SEA

The Southeast Asian Ministers of Education Organization Regional Center for Educational Innovation and Technology (SEAMEO INNOTECH) has established the SEAMEO INNOTECH Regional Education Program (SIREP) to document the policies, structures and procedures of educational innovations across the Southeast Asian countries, and to systematically assess the implementation of the educational innovations in the region. The program hopes to facilitate policy research to better understand how to achieve stronger educational systems in the region.

One of the most significant education reforms within the region has been the decentralization of educational management. This research project “Decentralization of Educational Management in Southeast Asia” seeks to document the approaches to decentralization in the 11 SEAMEO member countries and how countries develop and implement policies to effectively operationalize decentralization of educational management (DEM).
