Original Title:
Education Policy in FYROM and its role in advancing the EU accession process
Translated title:
Education Policy in FYROM and its role in advancing the EU accession process
Summary:
The aim of this study is to identify the role of education in advancing the EU accession process for FYROM. Two components of political criteria, namely “democracy” and “human rights & respect for and protection of minorities” have been addressed through the lens of education.
According to the EU community, systematic efforts are necessary to maintain and strengthen the European values. A great role is attributed to education as a promoter of democracy and human rights. The importance of evolving and embedding European values is particularly high for the countries involved in the EU integration process – presently the Southeastern Europe, including FYROM.
FYROM, in its official position admits the significance of education in disseminating the European values of democracy and human rights in the country. However, the potential of education is not yet fully employed in this sense.
