- Summary:
- As individuals and nations increasingly recognize that high levels of knowledge and skills are essential to their success, spending on education is increasingly considered an investment in the collective as well as individual future. Investment in human capital has thus moved to centre stage in the strategies of WEI countries to promote economic prosperity, better-skilled labour forces, social cohesion and other positive individual and social benefits.
