This paper argues that we cannot continue with business as usual in the face of the vast financing needs in the education sector. The current funding arrangements have demonstrated limitations, and many believe that a new aid architecture is needed to ensure that any new funding would be used for the right programs in the right countries and yield the right results. In this paper, I describe the framework for a better "global education compact" between donor and recipient nations, and four possible arrangements to mobilize and allocate development assistance for education.
