Abstract

Education is not only a basic human right, it is also a sector of development that plays a vital role in social economic growth, poverty alleviation, democratization, cultural tradition, inheritance and intercultural understanding. From this perspective, starting with the years following independence from colonial rule in the 1960s, educational development in developing countries has been identified as the responsibility not just of individual governments, but also of the international community; thus, various international cooperation projects have been undertaken. In particular, the 1990 World Conference on Education for All organized by the World Bank, UNESCO, UNICEF and UNDP has reconfirmed the necessity of the international community’s involvement in the development of basic education in developing countries. The Dakar Framework for Action adopted at the 2000 World Education Forum , as well as the Millennium Development Goals’ inclusion of universal access to primary education and the elimination of gender disparity in primary and secondary education, have further spread awareness of the great importance of international cooperation in the field of education. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
