IMPACT OF EDUCATION
ONDISCUSSANT
SOCIETY
ALEXANDRA EVE SANDIA
EDUCATION is a fundamental to sustainable
development. It is a powerful driver of
development and one of the strongest
instruments for reducing poverty and improving
health; it also enables people to be more
productive, to earn a better living and enjoy a
better quality of life, while also contributing to a
country´s over all economic growth.

EDUCATION CAN BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER WHERE
GOVERNMENTS FAIL
Nowadays, in many regions on the continent, governments continue to

fail those who are systematically left on the margins:
• Women
• Girls
• Children
• Many more
As a result, the human rights of the most vulnerable citizens are

neglected and ethnic and religious tensions are worsened for personal
and political gain.
Sadly, one tactic that has often been used to achieve this is to
deprive the large majority of the people from education
opportunities, such that citizens do not know what their rights
are.
Education can help bridge the gap between ethnic, religious

and cultural tensions. If people are not raised to be active from
their childhood on, to be responsible participants in their
communities and to participate in the activities needed towards
achieving development , then it is less likely that any form of
peace will be sustainable in the long term.
ROLE OF EDUCATION IN
STRENGTHENING
COMMUNITIES
DISCUSSANT
ROSELYN NORTE
Indeed, there’s a lot of Filipino children are currently out of
school, and many more are not learning even basic mathematics
or regarding skills. Dropout rates are high.
EDUCATION is the most important criteria for individual as well

as collective development of a society and a state.
PRIMARY EDUCATION is the basic bedrock upon which whole
building of education and human development stands.
It provides the child with basic insights to a new world

and provides him with necessary to proceed through
various fields of life.
EDUCATION IS INDIDPENSABLE IN STRENGTHENING THE BONDS
THAT HOLD COMMUNITIES AND SOCIETIES TOGETHER
We know that EDUCATION helps people understand democracy,

promotes the tolerance and trust that underpin it, and motivates
people to become active inquisitive citizens. We are even more
energized to ensure that education’s vital role is recognized,
especially in regions and countries where lack of tolerance is
associated with violence and conflict.
education also helps to identify and develop those leaders in

our communities who will battle against low – quality education,
and poverty, leading to a successful and strong community.
“The beautiful thing about
learning is that no one can take it
away from you”
