Education and Training
Towards people-centred development
THE GOVERNMENT of Trinidad and Tobago has maintained its focus on "people-centred development" as one of seven interconnected pillars supporting sustainable national development. In its "National Framework for Sustainable Development," the People's Partnership, now in its second year of governance, acknowledges that "in a knowledge-driven economy, a strong basic education system and significant participation in tertiary education make a decisive difference."
Outlining a powerful nation-building philosophy via "Pillar 1: People-centred Development," the government recognises that "in a country of 1.3 million people, the optimum contribution of each and every citizen is crucial. Accordingly, we commit to making human development a central thrust through the education system and through the creation of other infrastructure to support lifelong learning, skills-building, institutional strengthening and the building of a competitive economy."
