Item Democracy and Peace options for Adult Educators(ASPBAE, 1991-03-15) Wijetunga, V.M.K.When the recent Gulf crisis finally end inevitably escalated into armed conflict of unprecedented proportions, and with equally unprecedented consequences on living things and the environment which sustains life, where were the adult educators, and how loud and resounding were their voices against this human arrogance and folly? Were the adult educators active in the movement against armed conflict? Were they meeting in their learning groups and forums, small and large, and lobbying their legislators and decision-makers? Were they writing; frantically to the local and national newspapers and using whatever other media, to share their apprehensions with others, and to educate others of the impending catastrophe? Or were we mute observers of a tragic situation unfolding before our very eyes or were we trying to run away to safe places, like the Osbornes during the 1961 missile crisis?Item Linkage Between Adult Education and Development: A Practical Approach(1976-12-25) Mathur, J.CThe subject linkage between adult education and development -is vast. But I have been asked to furiish a keynote address and not to prosont a comprehensive roview of the suject.

That is why in Tanzania we place a great emphasis on the need to make adult education a popular movement so as to facilitate full participation of the adult population in implementing national development programmes. For we believe that you cannot develop a man, but you can help him develop himself. Hence the importance of making him aware of his potentials and his role in bringing about the development he desires.Item Report on the ASPBAE/KAAYE Participatory Research in Korea(1981-12-11) Soo-Duk-SaIn support of the Asian-South Pacific Bureau of Adult Education(ASPBAE), the Korean Association of Adult and Youth Education.
