 The
World Education Report 1991, prepared by the UNESCO Secretariat, is the
first in a new biennial series aiming to present broad but concise
analysis of major trends and policy issues in education in the world
today.
This
first Report in the new series reviews the worldwide expansion of
enrolments in formal education over the last two decades, focusing
especially on basic education and on continuing challenges for
educational policy in that area.
Looking
ahead through the remainder of the present decade, the Report
considers the global prospects of continuing progress towards the goal
of ‘education for all’, highlighting in particular the needs for
teachers and their critical role in measures aiming to improve learning
outcomes.
