Abstract	The Equity in the Classroom Project (EIC) was designed to increase the participation, academic achievement, and retention of girls and other marginalized children in primary school. EIC is comprised of three main components that include technical assistance, training, and results monitoring. The training involves a series of workshops (varying from 2-5 days each) over a period of 1 year that introduce tools and other strategies, reinforce their application, and evaluate the actions of participants to promote equity at the school level. Results monitoring was also conducted in all of the countries to measure the outcomes and impact of the EIC training to promote equitable teaching practices and increased participation for girls and disadvantaged learners. These case studies are available through Creative Associates International.
