Some of the issues to be considered are as follows:
1. How does education, or lack of it, influences your life and the one of other young people in your country?
2. What does education mean to you?
3. What is the relationship among formal/informal education? What the outcomes?
4. What do you think about the privatization of education?
5. What ideas would you suggest to help improve the educational system in your country and worldwide?
The Forum will run throughout June. All the material sent will then be summarised and presented during the second session of the International Youth Parliament, Sydney 2004.
