| Abstract | With the financial crisis and its fallout dominating the news headlines, there is a tendency to focus excessively on quick, short-term solutions. Urgent action is, of course, required--hence the recovery plan announced by the European Commission in November--but, in this time of crisis, people also need to make sure that they do not lose sight of the longer term: they must not forget the cement that binds together Europe's communities of peoples and values. The author believes that "education" is that long-term cement. Education unites. With more education, people can achieve a more "human" twenty-first century, and set societies on a stable path to peace and prosperity, by ensuring that learning is within the grasp of everyone, and throughout their lives too. Europe is committed to education. The stated policy aim for this decade--the famous "Lisbon Strategy"--is for the European Union to become a "knowledge-based society". Clearly, knowledge should be at the centre of this strategy, with access and lifelong learning for all at its foundation, and quality at the top of the knowledge pyramid. (ERIC). |
