Abstract: This paper provides a review of the status of Education Management Information Systems (EMIS) in Latin American and the Caribbean. It includes a history of EMIS development efforts in the region; an outline of practical lessons learned from earlier EMIS development efforts; the identification of current and emerging challenges for developing EMIS; and the identification of promising examples of the use of better data and information to inform education policy and planning. The study was prepared for the Education Networks 8th Regional Policy Dialogue Meeting held on November 2005 at the IDB headquarters in Washington, DC.
