ED/BEFLIT/69/3- page 2 Introduction 1. The Round Table of Bankers,Economists and Financierswas convened in Rome from 11 to 13 February 1969 by the Director-General of Unesco,in accordance with a recommendation made by the InternationalConsultative Liaison Committee for Literacy, which stated at its first session inJune 1967, that: "A round- table meeting of economists, bankers and businessmen shouldbe convened to examine the problems of long-term financing". At its second session, inSeptember 1968, the Committee recommendedthat: "The Round Tableof Bankers and Economists sched- uled for February 1969 should discuss literacyas an economic investment, and ad- vise on the ways in which literacy operations might bemost appropriately financed, with particular attentionto possible newresources, methods and procedures". 2. The Round,T4blewas attended by seventeen participantsin their personal capacity.k1)Mr. Guido Carli (Governor ofthe Banca d'Italia)was elected Chairman and Mr. A.R. Gale (United States of America) and D. K.Salim (Jordan) Vice-Presidents. 3. In his opening address (AnnexI), the Director-Generallaid stress on the seriousness of the problem of world illiteracy, both fromeconomic as wellas social and human points ofview, and referred to theneed for the co-operation of business and financial circlesin reducing illiteracy. Mr. Veronese spoke of the deep interest, particularly of the Italian MnterministerialWorking Group on Lit- eracy, in systematically dealing withthe problem of illiteracyand believed that the Round Table would beable to find solutionsto the serious problems in regard to resources, methods and structures for financing functionalliteracy activities. Introducing the debate, Mr. Carliexpressed his deepconcern over the problem of illiteracy which is not beingadequately solved at presentowing to shortage of human and financialresources. 4. The meeting was unanimousin recognizing the economicand social importance of literacy and its roleas a productive factor for developmentin industry, commerce and agriculture. It was felt that the hugetotal of illiteratesrepre- sents a vast loss of humanproductive power,as well as an affront to human dig- nity. All participants agreedthat, in spite of theprogress made in recent years, more resources should be broughtto bear on this problem both inthe inter- est of economic and socialdevelopment, as wellas the building of a peaceful world community. However, it was felt thatit is neither possiblenor necessary to deal in the present meeting with all aspects of theprogramme, including stra- tegy, means and methods, and the RoundTable decided to remain withinthe precise scope of its terms of reference. Its attentionwas concentrated on the planning and financing of functional literacyprogrammes and on the aid which could be brought to literacy through actionby bankers, businessmen andfinanciers. 5. The Round Table understoodfunctional literacyas training centring around basic literacy programmes which willenable the individual to functionef- ficiently and satisfactorilyas a productive member of the community,industry (1) Annex II list of participants ED/HEFL4/69/3- page 3 and other commercial or agricultural activities,and as a contributing member of society. It therefore accepted as a base of discussion theconcept of functional literacy, introduced in the Unesco/UNDP assisted literacyprojects and now imple- mented in various training schemes carried out bynumerous enterprises in differ- ent parts of the world. In other words, the Round Table based itsdiscussions on literacy programmes as linked to development objectivesand projects which inte- grate literacy teaching with vocational training. 6. The Round Table felt that the question of functionalliteracy should be con- sidered in relation to multipronged developmentschemes and specific kinds of enterprises in the industrial (large, mediumor small scale), agricultural, con- struction and the tertiary sectors.These differences affect the identification, preparation, appraisal, financing and implementationof functional literacy activities. 7. RECOMMENDATION I In the preparation ofnew development projects as in the reappraising of existing production activities, the importance ofwork-oriented literacy for short and long-term efficiency should alwaysbe considered.Thus, functional literacy training should appropriatelyconstitute an integral part of the planning and implementationprocess. Planning and financing of functional literacy Q. The Round Table emphasized that ina development programme involving indust- rial, commercial and agricultural workers,the inclusion of a functional literacy component should be systematicallyplanned at the earliest stage, when a project is in the preparatory phase.The content of a functionalliteracy pro- gramme should be related to the objectives, nature ofproduction, equipment and manpower structure of the activity concerned. Examples were given illustrating why industrial organizations often hadto employ mostly literate workers and why this in many cases determined theirchoice of whether or not to launch enterprises in certain areas of developing countries.It was stressed thatmany big industrial enterprises were willing and ready to undertaketraining programmes including lit- eracy as the necessity arises. However, the Round Table noted thatfunctional literacy has so far been neglected inmany agricultural projects, in small industry and in construction works, althoughthe need for it, in such activities, isbeing increasingly realized. 9. The Round Table considered thatthe inclusion of a literacy component in development projects was frequentlyoverlooked due to the lack ofan adequate system for identifying and appraising thebenefits of literacy.This, in turn, raised the question ofmeans and methods of identifying, preparing andappraising projects for investment and for determiningthe main mechanisisms by which bankers, financiers and businessmen could make suitableinvestments. The Round Tablewas of the view that greater attention shouldbe given to ensure the identification of the literacy component at the planningstage, it being often advisable to train workers in advance of the plant coming into actualoperation. Often the family unit rather than the individual workerwas the productive unit. 10. The Round Table discussed thevarious ways of financing functionalliteracy within the framework of business,banking and finance. The firstto be con- sidered was the making offinancial provision for literacyas a component of in- vestment in development projects,either present or future. It was felt that this should not be difficultas a rule, as the cost of functional literacyper worker or even family is usually small in relationto total investment outlaysnecessary to create additional jobsor to improve agriculture by means of irrigationand other major works. The Round Tablewas of the opinion that the financing should be derived both from theindividual resources of enterprisesas well as from loans from national and internationalbanks, preferably integrated ina loan serving the overall investmentpurposes. The distinctionwas made between loans from

These include the activities of extremist groups, often aimed directly at world heritage, culture and people active in culture. For this reason, UNESCO’s activities are of more significance than ever before. The international community should unremittingly continue to promote the values that underpinned the Organization’s foundation, and continue to motivate its actions. UNESCO was founded 70 years ago, after the tragic experiences of World War II.

This morning, we will hear the remaining statements, and thus conclude the general policy debate. Following our last speaker, I will invite the Director-General to deliver her reply to the rich debate, which we have had and are still having over the past week. 1.2 Before I go further, I would like to say that while the distinguished delegate of Afghanistan, Ambassador Sediqi, was speaking he received news of yet another attack in Kabul with 12 dead including three children. But being the thoughtful person that he is, he did not say this to the General Conference so as not to demoralize anyone. At the same time, he also received the news of the passing away of a former Minister of Education of Afghanistan. I found myself duty-bound to share what he did not thoughtfully share with you. Of course, he was very sad to learn of the terrorist attack in Afghanistan. 1.3 Before we start with our list of speakers, I am glad to inform the General Conference that Kiribati and Yemen now have voting rights for the rest of the session. I also wish to remind distinguished delegates that each national statement will be limited to six minutes. Representatives of intergovernmental organizations will have three minutes to address the Conference.

  • The Cold War Politicization of Literacy: Communism, UNESCO, and the World Bank*
    charles dorn and kristen ghodsee The Cold War Politicization of Literacy: Communism, UNESCO, and the World Bank* In 1947, officials at the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) announced the establishment of an unprecedented, worldwide literacy program entitled “Fundamental Education.”1 Responding to a new and growing international concern about the poverty and economic well-being of people around the world, UNESCO member states promoted Fundamental Education as a necessary precondition for the maintenance of international peace and the growth of economic prosperity in the postwar era.2 Simultaneously, however, officials at the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (a UN specialized agency more commonly referred to as the World Bank) refused to support educational programming, arguing that education-related projects, including the rebuilding of schools, could not guar- antee a return on the bank’s investment. Indeed, from the end of World War II until 1962, while UNESCO stressed the importance of education as a mecha- nism for social, political, and economic development, the World Bank did not lend to a single dollar to education-related projects.3 In 1962, World Bank lending policies began to shift. Bank officials issued loans, first to programs involving secondary education and then, beginning in 1970, to projects supporting the improvement and expansion of primary education. As a result, World Bank lending for primary education increased from zero to 14 percent between 1963 and 1978 and overall bank spending on education rose dramatically. During this same period, however, critics *The authors would like to thank the late Elisabeth Hansot, Will Holland, Ginny Hopcroft, Pedro Noguera, Scott Sehon, David Stark, David Tyack, and two anonymous reviewers at Diplomatic History for their comments on the manuscript.

    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA The Theological Justification for the Establishment of the Pontifical Commission for Justice and Peace ( Iustitia et pax) A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Theology and Religious Studies Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Sacred Theology © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Andrew Small Washington, D.C. 2010 The Theological Justification for the Establishment of the Pontifical Commission for Justice and Peace ( Iustitia et pax) Rev. Andrew Small, OMI, LL.M., S.T.D. Director: Rev. Brian V. Johnstone, C.SS.R., S.T.D. A central tenet of the aggiornamento undertaken by the Second Vatican Council was the Church’s role in and relationship to the modern world. Pope John XXIII’s call for a “pastoral” Council reached a new level of intensity in the Council’s debates on the Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, Gaudium et spes . As if to acknowledge the inchoate nature of the Church’s new vision for its role in the world, the Pastoral Constitution mandated creation of a new organism of the universal Church that would extend reflection and action on the Church’s social engagement beyond the Council. This mandate, contained in article 90 of Gaudium et spes would become the Pontifical Commission for Justice and Peace. This dissertation examines the history and theological foundations of the process leading to this decision, focusing on the development of the theology of the Church’s relationship with the world during the Council itself and the immediate aftermath.
