Participants of a policy discussion forum stated that the greatest strength of South Asia is its human resource — a young population — and innovative initiatives through partnerships can help utilise this workforce in overcoming deprivation and discrimination for substantive equity for all people. They expressed these views at a policy discussion on ‘Right to Education in South Asia’ which was organised here by Idara-e-Taleem-o-Aagahi (ITA). The session was moderated by Ms. Balea Raza Jamil, Director Programmes ITA. The key objectives of the discussion included taking stock of the RTE regimes and status at the regional level in the context of EFA goals and MDGs and highlighting the challenges and progress of South Asia particularly the participant countries on quality/learning and teacher challenges with reference to Post 2015 Development conversations.
