Social benefits of Education

8 years 1 month ago #537 by Dorina Grossu
The link between education and social benefits has long been recognized, as far back as Ancient Greece when Aristotle and Plato pointed out that education is central to the well-being of society. More recently, in the past few decades, research has supported this conventional wisdom, revealing that education not only enables individuals to perform better in the labour market, but also helps to improve their overall health, promote active citizenship and contain violence.

Then, if education is the answer to the current poverty levels, why don't we see more done about the "Education as a system"?
