It explains why education must be viewed as a basic human right, as a value in and of itself, and reviews the evidence on how education builds the human resources that individuals and nations need to be productive, to continue to learn, to solve problems, to be creative, and to live together and with nature in peace and harmony. When nations ensure that such an education is accessible to all throughout their lives, education becomes the engine of sustainable development ? economic, social, moral and cultural. The book is unique in that it covers the development of education at all levels in all countries of the Asia-Pacific region and beyond, using the latest international data bases, while blending in analyses of both quantitate and qualitative research. 000723999 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 14, 2014). 000723999 650_0 $$aEducation$$xAims and objectives. 000723999 650_0 $$aEducational sociology. 000723999 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9789812872203 000723999 830_0 $$aEducation in the Asia-Pacific region ;$$vvolume 27. 000723999 852__ $$bebk 000723999 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-287-221-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000723999 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:723999$$pGLOBAL_SET 000723999 980__ $$aEBOOK 000723999 980__ $$aBIB 000723999 982__ $$aEbook 000723999 983__ $$aOnline 000723999 994__ $$a92$$bISE
