Abstract | Universalization of primary education (UPE) is one of the major priority goals of all countries in the region of Asia and the Pacific. The developing countries in particular now are engaged extensively in the formulation and implementation of policies, plans, and programs aimed at making adequate and suitable opportunities for primary education available to all children as soon as possible. Lower participation rates of girls in primary education is seen as one of the main obstacles to achieving full universalization of primary education in some of the countries of the region. This volume focusing on New Guinea is one of a series that provides a comparative view of the position of and progress made in UPE in six countries with particular reference to female enrollment and participation in primary education. The six chapter topics in this volume are: (1) universal primary education; (2) poor female enrollment and retention, the incidence of the problem; (3) factors affecting the enrollment and retention of girls in community school; (4) retention, what the drop-outs and their parents say; (5) who drops out? and (6) present policies, projects, and proposed strategies. A number of tables displaying data appear throughout this volume and a 16-item bibliography is appended. (DB) |
