News & Publications

2 Aug 2011

Learning Issues is the first edition of the Trade Aid Education Series. This series focuses on a single issue in each publication and presents up-to-date research from around the world with links to Trade Aid partners. Learning Issues looks at access to education, a concern for all developing communities around the world.

The idea of this publication is to provide an opportunity for the New Zealand public to begin thinking through some of the complexities of achieving development in our global community. It can be used as a tool for teachers to start their students discussing some of the complexities we raise, thinking through various solutions, and continuing on a longer term learning path. Our ultimate aim as a thinking organisation is to have highly engaged, critical thinking, active supporters who appreciate that a development organisation needs to be dynamic in its approach to development. That we need to be open to new ways of working in order to continue providing support that best addresses the problems faced in global communities.

We hope you will enjoy reading this issue and will encourage your friends and family to read it too. As always we welcome your thoughts and feedback.
