The Commonwealth of Education in the Caribbean: Past, Present and Future

Abstract

Commonwealth Ministers of Education, MID-TERM REVIEW FOR CARIBBEAN/CANADA REGION OF COMMONWEALTH EDUCATION MINISTERS, Nassau, Bahamas, 28 July 2005, The Commonwealth of Education in the Caribbean: Past, Present and Future By: Sir John Daniel, President & CEO, Commonwealth of Learning // The programme for this Mid-Term Review gives me two opportunities to speak to you. This morning I shall talk about COL's work for you in general terms and go into more detail about our work in relation to the CCEM Action Plans this afternoon. // During the coming 2006-09 triennium COL will celebrate the 20th anniversary of its creation by the Commonwealth Heads of Government in 1987. Although this is a respectable age, the world moves on and Ministers change, so it is worth recalling COL's basic purpose. To do so I will use common interrogative pronouns.
