Education Management Information System (EMIS) in Yemen
UNESCO Yemen entrusted Masae, under the Global Partnership for Education (GPE), to design and implement a modern Education Management Information System (EMIS) for the country’s Ministry of Education. This initiative aimed to transform the way educational data is collected, managed, and visualised, supporting better decision-making for schools across Yemen.

Why This Matters
Education is a cornerstone of development, but in Yemen, ongoing challenges make it difficult to gather and use reliable school data. By providing a robust EMIS, MASAE empowered the Ministry of Education to track key information—such as student enrolment, teacher availability, and school resources—more efficiently and accurately than ever before.
Our Approach
MASAE’s approach was tailored to Yemen’s unique context:
Comprehensive Needs Assessment:
We began by reviewing the Ministry’s requirements and assessing local conditions, including technology access and internet connectivity.Custom System Development:
Based on our findings, we recommended and developed a user-friendly EMIS platform perfectly suited to Yemen’s needs.Real-World Piloting:
The system was piloted across approximately 50 schools, enabling real data collection, entry, and visualisation. This hands-on approach ensured the solution was practical and effective in the field.
Results and Impact
The new EMIS allows the Ministry of Education to:
Collect and Manage Data Efficiently:
Schools can now submit data quickly and securely, reducing paperwork and errors.Visualise Educational Trends:
Dashboards and reports provide clear insights, helping officials make informed decisions.
