Abstract: | Most of the Asian countries have national programs to provide educat ion on all factors that influence population growth. School children are given information on the effects of high birthrates on family and nation. Sloan Wayland thinks that the Asians will become the world's experts in population education. In all 9 countries (Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Japan, Republic of Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Sri Lanka, and Thailand) represented at a Meeting of Experts on the Role of University Faculties/Colleges of Education in Population Education in Bangkok, population education in varying degrees had been introduced in primary and secondary schools. |
