As the world seeks to build back better
into a new era of green and equitable economic growth,
tertiary education systems are at the heart of the big
transformations required throughout economies and societies.
Tertiary education is vital for the development of human
capital and innovation. Strategic and effective investments
in tertiary education can serve every country - from the
poorest to the richest - by developing its talent and
leadership pool, generating, and applying knowledge to local
and global challenges, and participating in the global
knowledge economy. Effective tertiary education sectors
ensure that countries have well-trained doctors, nurses,
teachers, managers, engineers, and technicians who are the
main actors of effective education and health service
delivery and public and private sector development. Decades
of insufficient and ineffective investment in postsecondary
education and the advanced skills developed through higher
learning opportunities have only exacerbated global equity
gaps. This paper describes the approach of the World Bank to
support the development of effective, equitable, efficient,
and resilient tertiary education systems and institutions.
It discusses and illustrates five principles that guide the
Bank's financial and policy advisory support to STEER
tertiary education systems toward optimizing their
contribution to equitable and green growth: (i) building
diversified Systems, (ii) investing smartly in new
Technologies, (iii) ensuring Equity in access and financing,
(iv) achieving Efficiency in resource utilization, and (v)
acquiring Resilience in service delivery so that learning continues. |
