        Abstract
        TOWARDS A COMMONWEALTH OF LEARNING: TWENTY YEARS OF PROGRESS, Address to the Foreign Ministers' Committee, Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting, Kampala, Uganda, HE The Hon. Burchell Whiteman, O.J., Sir John Daniel, and Professor Asha Kanwar, 21 November 2007, In preparing this report to CHOGM we reviewed the communiqués of the ten CHOGMs that have taken place since the Vancouver CHOGM that created COL in 1987. Each meeting has highlighted a particular concern. Our report tells you briefly what COL is doing about each of these issues. Here I will highlight just three of them: Poverty and Food Security; Secondary Schooling; and Small States.
