Justifications for, and Priorities of, Development Assistance to Education‐‐Finnish development cooperation in an international perspective

Abstract

The article presents findings of a research project which analysed statements pertaining to education's contribution to development as justifications for external assistance to education in developing countries, both at a general level and for particular priorities within the education sector. Material used in the study includes (i) publications of UNESCO and the World Bank from the late 1960s to the mid‐1990s, representing international thinking about education and development, and (ii) diverse materials produced during this period for discussing and planning Finnish development cooperation (both bilateral and non‐governmental). The focus is on the parallels and differences found between the international discourse and the Finnish materials.
