Education and Development Conference 2008

"After bread, education." 
G. J. Danton

 

As Dr. Oscar Arias says: "Education is the most basic necessity after those that are vital to life itself--food, clothing, and shelter. It is education that lifts people out of the state of chronic poverty in which they are constantly struggling to fulfill basic needs such as these. The truth is that all people have a right to have these basic needs fulfilled, and they also have a right to education. In this regard, the world is not doing very well, are we?"
