Bibliographies in non-formal education, no. 2 : non-formal educational programs in different geographical areas of the world

MANY COUNTRIES OPERATE ONGOING "NON-FORMAL" EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS OUTSIDE DEPARTMENTS AND MINISTRIES OF EDUCATION. YOUTH PROGRAMS, LAND RESETTLEMENT, ADULT EDUCATION, AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION, AND NATIONAL SERVICE PROGRAMS, FOR EXAMPLE, ARE OPERATING UNDER MULTIPLE AUSPICES. THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY SELECTS AND IDENTIFIES SOME OF THESE PROGRAMS BY GEOGRAPHIC AREAS. IT IS A LIMITED SELECTION, SINCE MANY OF THESE PROGRAMS HAVE HAD LITTLE PUBLIC DOCUMENTATION OR ARE IN EXPERIMENTAL STAGES. THERE IS AN URGENT NEED TO STUDY AND DOCUMENT SUCH PROGRAMS IN TERMS OF METHODOLOGY, COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS, AND OUTCOME EFFECTIVENESS. IT IS HOPED THAT THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY MAY ASSIST THOSE INTERESTED IN PURSUING THE TASK OF INVESTIGATING SUCH PROGRAMS. THE ENTRIES ARE ORGANIZED WITHIN THE FOLLOWING SEVEN SECTIONS: AFRICA, ASIA, LATIN AMERICA, MIDDLE EAST, EUROPE AND THE U.S.S.R.; CANADA, AUSTRALIA, AND NEW ZEALAND; ISLAND AREAS.
