  • INCLUD-ED. Report 4, The role of education in the European knowledge based society [Elektronski vir]
    Mirčeva, Jasmina
    The Report 4 provides an overview of the challenges of the European Knowledge based Society, analyzing how educational exclusion and inclusion affects diverse areas of society (i.e. employment, ... housing, health and political participation) and what kind of educational provision contributes to overcome it. More specifically, it focuses on the review of the literature about the challenges of European knowledge based society (EKS) and the role of educationin it. A particular attention was paid to vulnerability of youth, women, people with disabilities, migrants and ethnic minorities. The Report 4 is based on the literature review, mostly provided by seven interim reports including policy and document analyses. The main results of the literature review indicated that educational exclusion influences the situation and the status of vulnerable groups. On the one hand education provides knowledge and skills that are a condition for better opportunities in the labour market, enable better accomodation and health conditions and improve the interest for political participation. On the other hand educational inclusion is tied to other important life outcomes, such as better employment and income, higher quality of life and civic involvement, that have significant impact on the studied fields. It was stressed in this report that the relation between the educational inclusion /exclusion and the position of the vulnerable groups in the fields of employment, health, housing and political participation are not direct but carried out through the interrelated socio-economic and geopolitical variables. In this respect Mircea and Dorobanty (2008) speak about vicious circle of deprivation indicating that people living in poverty have limited access to appropriate knowledge and skills, and that the lack of both prevents improving their labour market, political, health and accommodation status and possibilities. Beside this, it should not be neglected that education has a value in itself and that it contributes to development and satisfaction of individuals (CREA, 2008). Vulnerable groups are specific in this respect and their access to those values and opportunities are often limited. That is why one of the key issues of the Detailed Work Programme of Education and Training System in Europe (2002) is to ensure equal access to acquisition of all citizens and groups in the society and to motivate them to participate in learning. Providing an equal access to educational resources and facilitating all citizens to participate in education and learning is one of the key objectives of the European Knowledge Based Society.
