Most educators and governmental policy makers realize that increasing access to education not only results in individual personal development and prosperity but also contributes to the public good by improving the quantity and quality of talent required to grow economies. The latest OECD Education at a Glance 2016 report provides comparative information that helps participating countries measure their investment in education. The Sustainable Development Goals for 2030 are ambitious and are matched by the OECD strategy to measure progress - a clear indicator of the seriousness of this cross-border commitment.
A study from Cambridge University of 35 countries in South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa provides another source of data on progress in education. This study indicated that being poor and/or female results in lower access in many of these developing countries, a condition that some believe must first be addressed by improving primary and secondary education access.
