2022

Annual Report

Impact Highlights

In Ghana, PoP completed 8 school builds, launched programming in 30 new Teacher Support schools, and started WASH programs in 20 new schools. They started conversations to formalize a partnership between two new Teacher Training Colleges and piloted PoP’s first digital reading application in 2 schools.

In Guatemala, PoP continued to provide teachers with workshops and coaching sessions and continued to support students, teachers and parents by delivering materials directly to community leaders who then distributed them to parents and teachers. The team completed 7 school builds and at the end of the year was able to graduate 19 schools out of the Teacher Support and WASH program.

Breaking the menstruation paradigm

In Laos, the team completed 10 schools and held meetings to continue planning for the new Memorandum of Understanding. Part of this planning process included the development of two new program pilots, Lao Teacher Support and SEL. The team also completed their first longitudinal study after three years of conducting the evaluation.

PoP’s assessment of returns on investment in education reveals that every additional year of primary school will yield an average of 8.8% in future earnings. Additionally, every dollar invested in water, sanitation, and hygiene programming generates $4.30 in observed benefits (e.g., healthcare cost savings).

Longitudinal Studies & Research

Results of a longitudinal study in Laos indicate that students at PoP schools have shown almost a 10% – 15% increase in test scores for each grade as compared to students in schools without PoP programming.


A Guatemala study in 2021 indicated that 91% of parents believed that their children could go to school while on their period, compared to just 23% of parents prior to PoP programming.
