Education For All
Education is a human right. We have the means, the power, the structure, the technology
to achieve this right - yet do we have the will to provide education for all? Examples
from Yemen, Mali, Kenya, Sri Lanka, Costa Rica, Ecuador and the United States of America
illustrate how countries are trying different approaches to spreading literacy, health
education, computer training, and environmental education; issues that are crucial for
a better world and an equitable development.
Education pour tous
L'éducation est un droit de l'homme. Nous avons les moyens, le pouvoir, la
structure, la technologie nécessaires pour satisfaire ce droit - mais en avons-nous
véritablement la volonté? Les exemples de pays tels que le Yemen, le Mali, le Kenya,
le Sri Lanka, le Costa Rica, l'Equateur et les Etats-Unis d'Amérique illustrent la
façon dont divers pays adoptent des approches différentes pour dispenser
l'alphabétisation, l'éducation sanitaire, la formation en informatique et
l'éducation environnementale; toutes ces questions sont vitales si l'on
souhaite créer un monde meilleur et assurer un développement équitable.
Educación para todos
La educación es un derecho humano. Nosotros disponemos de los medios, el poder,
la estructura y la tecnología necesarios para satisfacer este derecho - pero
tenemos verdaderamente la voluntad de hacerlo? Ejemplos de Yemen, de Kenya, de
Sri Lanka, de Costa Rica, de Ecuador y de los Estados Unidos de América ilustran
cómo varios países adoptan enfoques diferentes para difundir la alfabetización, la
educación sanitaria, la formación en computación y la educación ambiental;
todos estos asuntos son fundamentales si deseamos crear un mundo mejor y asegurar
un desarrollo equitativo.

Relevant Education For All: Innovation in Education in Papua New Guinea
Children in Papua New Guinea used to learn all their skills in the community, in their
own language and culture. Following a period of formal, classroom teaching with emphasis on
English and mathematics, education in Papua New Guinea is once again moving out into the
community. Examples of initiatives in Milne Bay and Enga provinces show the revolutionary
effects of the recent "education for all" campaign. Teaching is in local languages.
Learning traditional values, social skills and agricultural techniques, as well as
curriculum subjects, taught by community members, in addition to teachers, ensures
children will play a useful role in the future of their community.

Ethiopia: Education For All
Before the 1974 revolution in Ethiopia, only 15 % of the school-age population was
in school, and 95 % of the adult population was unable to read or write. In the
following decade, the number of schools tripled, teacher numbers grew and the
percentage of children attending schools doubled. "Learn and then teach" became
the motto of the National Literacy Campaign which from 1978 to 1988 educated
adults in 15 languages. The literacy movement in Ethiopia is continuing to gain
momentum bringing empowerment and joy to people from all levels of society.

Innovations
This video jointly produced by UNESCO and UNICEF shows how shortcomings in conventional
education systems, dwindling economic resources, and chronic social problems have led to
a deterioration of basic education in many developing countries. To cope with the increasing
numbers of children, adolescents and adults excluded from the education process, a new vision
is needed in which education is innovative, inventive and relevant.
