Fundación Ceibal and the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) have entered into an agreement covering 2025–2027 to strengthen the capabilities of policymakers in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) to use educational technologies appropriately and sustainably, in alignment with each country’s pedagogical goals, while promoting inclusive and equitable education.
One of the agreement’s specific objectives is to generate evidence on the current state of educational technology integration in countries across the region. Accordingly, this call for research proposals will address critical challenges related to Digital Transformation in Education (DTE) in the region. The call is supported by the National Agency for Research and Innovation (ANII).
