Extractions: Rome, Italy The Aid agencies workshop on " Education for rural people: Targeting the poor " was organized on 12-13 December 2002, Rome, Italy, to bridge the education gap between the rich and the poor, between urban and rural areas, and to promote equal access to and completion of quality basic education. More than 60 experts from international aid agencies, NGOs, Foundations and Universities attended the meeting which was organized by the Extension, Education and Communication Service (SDRE) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) provided technical cooperation and the Italian Development cooperation funded the initiative. The workshop assumption was that a better coordination of aid agencies can improve education for rural people, which is crucial to reducing poverty and inequities in a world where the richest 1% of the population receives as much income as the poorest 57%, where 2.8 billion people still live on less than $2 a day, of whom 70% of this poor live in rural areas. It is mainly among the rural poor indeed that live the 130 million children out of school and the 880 million illiterate adults and the 800 million undernourished people. The outcomes of the workshop were: A consolidated awareness among aid agencies of the importance of Education for rural people (ERP) as an essential component of education for all, poverty alleviation and rural development strategies.

The Iowa Association of School Boards (IASB), Iowa State Education Association (ISEA), and School Administrators of Iowa (SAI), announced today that they intend to take their case to the people of Iowa through a series of community forums and informational meetings in various locations across the state in the weeks ahead. "We stand at a crossroads," said IASB President Susie McDermott, a former Cedar Rapids school board member. "We're joining together to wake up our communities to the fact that the school funding crisis is real. We've moved beyond 'doing more with less' and are now looking in the face of doing 'less with less.' We don't believe that's what Iowans want."
