Improving Access to and Quality of TVET

in the Small Pacific Island States


In June 2003, a workshop was held in Apia, Samoa, with participants from 11 countries of the Pacific region, including team leaders from UNEVOC Centres. It was held in partnership with UNESCO/PATVET (Pacific Association of TVET) and the Commonwealth of Learning. Participants exchanged views on the UNESCO and ILO Recommendations, and explored ways for implementing these at the national level, with a special focus on quality of TVET and on access to TVET in the Pacific region.

At a special add-on session with UNEVOC Centre team leaders, two further issues were discussed:

  • The UNEVOC Network: Staff of UNEVOC Centres shared experiences with regard to their participation in the UNEVOC Network, and discussed ways for strengthening it. Their observations were taken into consideration during the preparation of the Focus Group meeting (see page 14).
  • The Sourcebook on the subject of “Learning to Do”: Participants presented their views to identify and prioritise a set of core values relevant to the teaching of TVET. Ms Lourdes Quisumbing, President of the Asia Pacific Network for International Education and Values Education (APNIEVE), acted as resource person. The observations of participants formed the basis for the modules to be included in the sourcebook.
