If this is not food for thought for those concerned...then what is? I hope this is going to trigger some positive action not just from within. Dont you think Africa countries with better practices should join hands to pull ourselves out of some bottomless pit we did not dig? If we were to develope a Problem Tree and Objective tree we might (note "might") just find a way of dealing with the root causes. But stakeholders with opposing vested interests presents a picture of a forest with cobwebs...a confused confusion!? Nevertheless statistics can conceal alot ref. bikini. Beneath those statistics there could be some pathetic issues worse than the low tertiary enrolment in Malawi..take heart "Kuthamanga sikufika!"Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13596319297862291115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3487624526298551103.post-46503512291729568972009-11-15T16:28:23.042-08:002009-11-15T16:28:23.042-08:00I like your analogy of statistics to the bikini(I ...I like your analogy of statistics to the bikini(I can't think of any man who would not like this). While most bikinis would really conceal the vital contents, the Malawi situation is like that of a rather see-through bikini whereby the statistics reveal everything including how static our tertiary and secondary education has been over the years. <br />Probably the advent in recent times of more and more private universities would help increase the tertiary enrolment figures.Henerenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3487624526298551103.post-2049408261644992232009-11-09T15:07:48.425-08:002009-11-09T15:07:48.425-08:00excellent analysis. thanks for making me look deep...excellent analysis. thanks for making me look deeper behind the figures... and some interesting recommendations. altho i'm sure it would take more than the stroke of a pen to increase tertiary education enrollment! i bet Malawi does do much more vocational training but not formally... maybe through apprenticeships, teaching your sons your trade etc. not something that can easily be counted.Acaciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03148234753192860981noreply@blogger.com
