MISSION
The Global Learning Portal (GLP) develops and customizes portal technology applications to connect stakeholders and educators, deliver educational resources and support development project activities worldwide. The portal facilitates country-level and regional development and education initiatives by linking educators, international development practitioners, government ministries and organizations in over 130 countries with a comprehensive and flexible set of portal tools for collaboration, communication, and knowledge management. GLP supports activities in countries and regions such as Afghanistan, Middle East, Zambia, Mexico, Central Asia and Latin America.
The Global Learning Portal is a multi-stakeholder global alliance. GLP was launched with support from USAID, the Academy for Educational Development (AED) and Sun Microsystems. GLP partners include UNESCO, Education International, Widernet/eGranary, and European Schoolnet. Additional financial, technical and in-kind support has been received from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, portal-provider Liferay, the Broader Middle East and Africa Initiative (BMENA) and growing number of education and development projects worldwide.
