As development funding becomes available, Jigitugu provides a ready foundation for scale-up and for development partners to work with and through a robust government data system to deliver reliable, real-time education data.
We’re proud to continue collaborating with the Ministere De l’Education Nationale to strengthen digital capacity, evidence-based decision-making, and opportunities for every learner in Mali.

The handover is a major milestone for sustainable digital transformation in Mali’s education sector. Next, the Ministry will lead a 200-school pilot in Mopti, Ségou & Bandiagara targeting 5,000 girls with cash under the #PASCOFI programme.
Our congratulations to Mali’s Ministere De l’Education Nationale on the official handover of #Jigitugu yesterday — marking the full transfer of ownership of this innovative digital attendance and cash transfer system. 🇲🇱
As well as collecting school, learner, & learner & teacher attendance data, Jigitugu also captures learner performance data and is configured to work with our Cash Transfer and GRM Tool for joined-up approach to data and cash programme delivery.
Following a successful pilot in 10 schools, capturing data on pupils & teachers and supporting 1,500 vulnerable girls with lightly conditional cash transfers, Jigitugu has now been officially handed over to the Ministry.
Developed by CGA Technologies under the World University Service of Canada (WUSC)-implemented @globalaffairs.canada.ca-funded PASCOFI programme, Jigitugu is adapted from our HereMIS platform to meet Mali’s education priorities.
