UNESCO Website

When reasearching this website I ran across a section titled "What are the three most important skills a child should learn?" UNESCO Bangkok Director, Gwang-Jo Kim, said " One of the greatest challenge for education systems today is keeping pace with the skills they will need in an increasingly knowlwdge based economy." He stated that children need to learn culture, become critical thinkers, and also need to obtain life skills. I agree with the ideas and beleive that if every child possessed these skills they will grow as individual. Another insight I found was that only 60% of Nigerians educators possess the qualifications to teach. In order to improve education we must first improve leadership qualifications worldwide. The last insight that I gained was how well the UNESCO's website is put together to give quality information to all professionals across the globe.
