The Case of Sesame Workshop
IPMN Conference Paper USING COMPLEX SUPPLY THEORY TO CREATE SUSTAINABLE PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS FOR SERVICE DELIVERY: THE CASE OF SESAME WORKSHOP Hillary Eason ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the potential uses of complex supply theory to create more finan- cially and institutionally sustainable partnerships in support of public-sector and non- profit service deliveries. It considers current work in the field of operations theory on optimizing supply chain efficiency by conceptualizing such chains as complex adaptive systems, and offers a theoretical framework that transposes these ideas to the public sector. This framework is then applied to two case studies of financially and organiza- tionally sustainable projects run by the nonprofit Sesame Workshop. This research is intended to contribute to the body of literature on the science of delivery by introducing the possibility of a new set of tools from the private sector that can aid practitioners in delivering services for as long as a project requires. Keywords - Complex Adaptive Systems, Partnership Management, Public-Private Part- nerships, Science of Delivery, Sustainability INTRODUCTION Financial and organizational sustainability is a major issue for development projects across sectors. Regardless of the quality or impact of an initiative, the heavy reliance of most programs on donor funding means that their existence is contingent on a variety of external factors – not least of which is the whims and desires of those providing finan- cial support. The rise of the nascent “science of delivery” provides us with an opportunity to critical- ly examine how such projects, once proven effective, can be sustainably implemented and supported over a long enough period to create permanent change.

Bringing Hope and Opportunity to Children
Bringing Hope and Opportunity to Children Affected by Conflict and Crisis Around the World Sesame Workshop and partners are leading the largest coordinated early childhood intervention in the history of humanitarian response. The scale of the global refugee crisis is staggering. Today, more than 70 million people are displaced worldwide — and half are children. The most formative years of their lives have been marked by upheaval, chaos, and violence, all with lasting effects on their development and wellbeing. Millions of young children are spending their childhoods without early childhood development (ECD) opportunities that can help them recover from adverse experiences and prepare them to thrive. In the face of this urgent humanitarian crisis, Sesame Workshop and the International Rescue Committee (IRC), with support from the MacArthur Foundation, partnered to create Ahlan Simsim (“Welcome Sesame” in Arabic), a program that delivers early learning and nurturing care to children and caregivers affected by conflict and displacement in Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. Building on our ambitious efforts in the Syrian response region, Sesame Workshop has teamed up with the LEGO Foundation, BRAC, and the IRC to support hundreds of thousands of children and caregivers affected by both the Syrian crisis in Jordan and Lebanon and the Rohingya refugee crisis in Bangladesh, by ensuring access to play-based learning opportunities that are vital to their development. Together with other stakeholders, we have the potential to transform humanitarian response, benefitting children affected by conflict and crisis around the world. Ahlan Simsim: Delivering vital early learning to children in the Syrian response region The ongoing conflict in Syria has Mass Media Direct Services displaced over 12 million people.

Big Dreams Sparked by a Spirited Girl Muppet
GLOBAL GIRLS’ EDUCATION Big Dreams Sparked by a Spirited Girl Muppet Globally, an estimated 510 million women grow up unable to read and write – nearly twice the rate of adult illiteracy as men.1 To counter this disparity in countries around the world, there’s Sesame Street. Local adaptations of Sesame Street are opening minds and doors for eager young learners, encouraging girls to dream big and gain the skills they need to succeed in school and life. We know these educational efforts yield benefits far beyond girls’ prospects. They produce a ripple effect that advances entire families and communities. Increased economic productivity, reduced poverty, and lowered infant mortality rates are just a few of the powerful outcomes of educating girls. “ Maybe I’ll be a police officer… maybe a journalist… maybe an astronaut!” Our approach is at work in India, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Egypt, South Africa, Afghanistan, and many other developing countries where educational and professional opportunities for women are limited. — Khokha Afghanistan BAGHCH-E-SIMSIM Bangladesh SISIMPUR Brazil VILA SÉSAMO China BIG BIRD LOOKS AT THE WORLD Colombia PLAZA SÉSAMO Egypt ALAM SIMSIM India GALLI GALLI SIM SIM United States Indonesia JALAN SESAMA Israel RECHOV SUMSUM Mexico PLAZA SÉSAMO Nigeria SESAME SQUARE Northern Ireland SESAME TREE West Bank / Gaza SHARA’A SIMSIM South Africa TAKALANI SESAME Tanzania KILIMANI SESAME GLOBAL GIRLS’ EDUCATION loves about school: having lunch with friends, Watched by millions of children across the Our Approach playing sports, and, of course, learning new country, Baghch-e-Simsim shows real-life girls things every day. in situations that have the power to change Around the world, local versions of Sesame gender attitudes.

Inleiding In 1967 publiceerde Joan Ganz Cooney in "The Potential Uses of Television in Preschool Education" haar aanbevelingen over voorschoolse educatieve televisie voor kinderen. 1 Hiermee zette zij de eerste stap in de ontwikkeling van een kinderprogramma dat dertig jaar later wereldwijd op de televisie uitgezonden zou worden, Sesame Street . Cooney voerde haar onderzoek uit in opdracht van experimenteel psycholoog Lloyd Morrisett. In de tijd van de publicatie van Cooney’s rapport gingen de meeste Amerikaanse kinderen uit de getto's niet naar de kleuterschool. Zij begonnen daardoor op de basisschool al met een leerachterstand, die zij gedurende hun schooltijd nooit meer helemaal zouden kunnen wegwerken. 2 Morrisett wilde kinderen uit achterstandswijken die niet naar de kleuterschool gingen, voorbereiden op de basisschool door voorschoolse educatie aan te bieden.
