This edition of Key Indicators presents data collected in 2003 and 2004 in South Eastern European countries and territories through the ETF's network of National Observatories. Some of the data were supplemented by those (in particular EU averages) collected by Eurostat and OECD. Data on education and labour market are compiled by ETF from official responses to questionnaires or from reports provided by education authorities in each country and are mainly used for comparative analysis. While it is difficult to assess the effectiveness of the different policy options on a common basis, the information presented in this report shows that comparative analysis could in any case be a useful instrument for informing the debate. To advance the debate further, reliable and relevant information of good quality is needed. The publication focus on the access to and participation in education and initial vocational education.
In this issue: - Cover story: Education and training key to wider democracy. An interview with Elmar Brok, Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the European Parliament. - In focus: The European Qualification Framework; The European Agency for Reconstruction and the ETF; Regional Advisory Forum: The clearing house for VET reform; Barcelona process produces mixed results for VET. - Features: Arab women: making themselves at home in the workplace; It takes more than learning to read to reduce poverty; Skills and work in the informal economy in Albania.
