This paper examines the international circulation of the evidence-based-education model. It shows how this circulation emerges from the field of public health. It also indicates how some technologies and expert knowledge are designed by international consortiums which have a relatively large ability to influence audiences through their links with States, national agencies, and universities. The article characterizes supranational organizations, like the OECD and the European Commission, as agents of dissemination and mediators of this international expertise. The evidence-based model serves to redefine the relationships between research and policy, from health to education, in institutionalizing new standards and methods to evaluate public intervention programs and management.
