The 14 chapters in this book address education policy as it is
being implemented in three world regions, Africa, the Caribbean,
and the Middle East. The diverse authors utilize original local
data, interpreting it to describe policy development and
implementation across a range of nations who share commonalities
but also differences. The chapters begin with the premise that
policy must respond to the needs of the citizenry and to the
challenges faced by each society internally as well as globally.
Meeting the challenge of frequently competing existing needs while
addressing educational development to prepare for future needs, is
an ongoing task for policymakers. The researchers authoring the
book's chapters are aware of competing challenges and of the need
for frequent revision of educational policy as well as continuing
support for its implementation. They base their conclusions and the
implications offered on the data while taking into account the
culture within which successful and appropriate policy must be
implemented. The implications have relevance for any society in the
world as diversity exists everywhere so all societies are
experiencing challenges generated by our interdependence with each
other.
