Author expounds on the value of this broader, cultural view of education, and deplores the narrower work-related view on education predominant in the region. He also points out that in the present dynamic economic conditions learning throughout life, and dealing with change, have become more necessary to ensure varied employment, but stresses that this must be accompanied by attention for arts and cultural knowledge, as well as a strengthening of the bond between education and community."
