This report presents a framework for analysis of formal coordination approaches for education planning and response in emergencies and protracted crises. It reviews concepts and definitions of coordination, approaches and structures for coordinated planning and response, and expected outcomes of these processes, with a focus on humanitarian structures across the humanitarian–development nexus. The main types of formal education coordination groups include Education Clusters, Refugee Education Working Groups and Local Education Groups (LEGs). These often have different purposes and organisations associated with them, sometimes resulting in overlaps and gaps in coordination efforts.
