Education reforms 'set good example' for emerging nations
China is a role model for developing countries on how to use education as a tool for social inclusion, economic development and poverty reduction, a senior UN official told China Daily in an exclusive interview. China has made "huge progress" in improving access to education and literacy rates, said Irina Bokova, director-general of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. "I know the Chinese government is very much focused on rural areas, which is not just a problem of China's, but also for many countries in the world," Bokova said. She said China is in a good position to help tackle global education provision challenges through the work of the International Research and Training Centre for Rural Education, a research center funded by both UNESCO and the Chinese government. "Education planning is a challenge for many developing countries, and I think China has set a good example," she said.
