Figure 3 Educational attainment by ethnocultural origin

(c) Educational attainment (population aged 15 and above)2

Factors taken into consideration were occupation, educational attainment and disabled status.

No details are available on educational attainment levels for male and female indigenous students.

In spite of high level educational attainment, women remained marginalized in the labour market.

Lower fertility rates by age and higher educational attainment levels were noted among the women taking part in the study.

Education also affects the inter generational formation of human capital, with the education of mothers influencing the educational attainment of children.

3 The literacy rate refers to the proportion of persons aged 15 and above with educational attainment at primary or above.

Studies have shown that a mother's low educational attainment is the factor most consistently related to malnutrition among children in developing countries.

With limited educational attainment, if not illiterate, unfamiliar with their rights and existing laws, immigrant women are most vulnerable to discrimination, exploitation and abuse.

The educational exclusion of older and poor women is still significant and deserves the formulation of specific policies.

Bolivia would do well to follow the example of its eastern neighbor, Brazil, which has experienced a surge in educational and scientific investments since its democratization in the 1980 s. Rising educational attainment is helping to promote more technologically sophisticated exports as well.

But perhaps this is irrelevant. Maybe better educated workers do their jobs more efficiently, in which case we will surely find a clear relationship between educational attainment and economic growth.

Improving educational attainment, particularly of girls, would also have an impact on population dynamics, since education is known to influence demographic behaviour with respect to nuptiality, fertility, health and migration.

Other problems in the area of education are the poor state of many classrooms and the lack of educational materials.

Poor health conditions, a low level of educational facilities and a work force with limited qualifications also hamper social progress.

Very favourableUNDP Human Development Report 1996 ranks Canada first in world. (Human Development Index measures a country apos s achievements in terms of life expectancy, educational attainment and adjusted real income.)

Moreover, this approach neglects the educational dividends that China will enjoy over the next 20 years, as the younger generation replaces older workers. As it stands, the rate of return adjusted educational attainment for Chinese aged 50 60 is half that of those aged 20 25.

For immigrant women, the complexity of gender based violence is heightened by the inclusion of factors such as race, ethnicity, educational attainment, patterns of child rearing, perceptions and attitudes towards the foreign born.

By facilitating the integration of poor countries into the globalized economy and helping poor people, and women in particular, to develop industrial activities in rural areas, Italy and UNIDO were making a direct contribution to poverty alleviation and the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals.

However, there are always people who, because of poor educational achievements or for other reasons, have not sufficiently mastered the basic cultural techniques.

Of particular concern is the fact that children considered poor are channelled towards monastic Buddhist schools and are offered no alternative educational opportunity.

For instance, the reduction of poverty can have significant positive effects on the increase of educational attainment and the improvement of health, and achievement of the latter two would reinforce the reduction of poverty.

Indeed, this is the great attainment.

Romney s budget plan would also make the federal tax and transfer system considerably less progressive, thereby worsening income inequality, which is already at its highest level since the Great Depression. Rising income inequality fuels a growing opportunity deficit for children born into poor and middle income families, reflected in disparities in educational attainment by family background, and a decline in intergenerational mobility.

A growing body of evidence shows that vaccines benefits extend beyond preventing illness and death. They have also been found to aid infants cognitive development and children s educational attainment, thus boosting countries economic growth potential.

Indonesia developed and implemented a new model of educational development entitled life skills that targets poor female school dropouts and illiterate girls and women.

The attainment of these goals calls on

With rising prosperity comes improved education and health care, which promise to help drive long term economic growth by improving productivity. In China, this would represent a significant shift from prevailing conditions, in which the children of poor households, especially in rural areas, lag in terms of nutrition and school enrollment, despite significant progress in recent decades on lowering infant mortality and raising educational attainment.

The deterioration in the economic situation, poverty, a worsening health and nutritional status of women and children, difficult access to health services and educational facilities will render the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals by 2015 extremely difficult.

This combination of factors is particularly burdensome for the most vulnerable segments of the US population particularly those with limited educational attainment, first time labor market entrants, and those who have been out of work for an extended period.

The need for the levy was clearly demonstrated in a manpower projection commissioned by the Government in 2002, which indicates that, in 2007, there will be a surplus of some 140,000 workers, many with low levels of educational attainment.

Currently there is a critical shortage of medicines, while the breakdown of electricity and water supplies and poor sanitation take their toll among the medical and educational services.

In pursuance of this objective the Department in addition to creating community awareness through health educational programmes, provides financial assistance to poor householders for the construction of latrines.

Second, when births are more widely spaced, children do better, both physically and in terms of educational attainment. We should all agree that it is desirable for aid organizations to promote the health and education of children in developing countries.

Then there are the indicators that link educational attainment and employment status. Most notable here is the growing gap between those with a college degree (where the unemployment rate is only 3.5 ) and those lacking a high school diploma (11.3 ).

The data collected during the visit showed that, despite efforts to remedy the situation, educational attainment, health standards, housing conditions, family income and access to economic opportunity and to social services are much worse among aboriginal people than among other Canadians.
