Facing persistent shortages and poor management of children\u2019s books, Cambodia\u2019s Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS) launched a digital solution for systemic textbook ordering and distribution called Track and Trace (TnT) in 2017. As TnT continues to expand and improve, it has attracted increasing attention from both the Cambodian government and international donors, concurrently gaining its relevance to countries with similar policy goals. Building on this interest, our research examines TnT\u2019s development and application, guided by the following questions:<br \/>\nQuestion 1: What are the characteristics and perceived impacts of TnT by stakeholders?<br \/>\nQuestion 2: How and under what conditions was TnT developed and implemented?<br \/>\nQuestion 3: What challenges were observed and addressed during the process? What additional supports are required for the success of TnT?Link to the full report:&nbsp;https:\/\/curate.nd.edu\/articles\/report\/SHARE_LIBROS_Cambodia_EndlineReport\/24877683<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Children in low-and middle-income countries often struggle to master foundational academic skills, such as reading, despite years of schooling.
