The Education Partnerships Group (EPG) brings together organizations around the world with the goal of providing an excellent education to every child regardless of socioeconomic status. To do this, the EPG set up a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) team as a resource to help policymakers explore the benefits of establishing a PPP in their education system. In 2017, IDPF provided a grant to the EPG to support the design and implementation for a PPP in Ghana that will include contracting non-profit providers to run a small group of government schools.

The EPG is also a funder and incubator of the Global Schools Forum, an independent not-for-profit membership organization of school operators designed to support non-state organizations to provide quality education to low income families.
