 QUALITY EDUCATION AND REDUCING SCHOOL DROPOUT RATE AMONGST YOUTH – EU PRIORITIES IN THE CONTEXT OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTAlina Voiculet ()
Contemporary Economy Journal, 2021, vol. 6, issue 2, 61-66 Abstract: Ensuring quality education is one of the Sustainable Development Goals set by the UN, in the 2020 Agenda. In this regard, the issue of poor education of children and young people is a priority on the EU agenda in the next multi-annual framework (2021-2027). Access to education is essential for the proper functioning of a sustainable society. Education is a process that takes place throughout life, regardless of age. To reach this goal, school dropout has to be reduced and improvement of the educational system is necessary, regardless of geographical location and domain, respectively origin. This is why the EU’s goal is to reduce early school dropout rates in the EU to below 10%. Increasing the number of young people going towards higher education, as well as improving the quality of education, are very important for sustainable and inclusive growth. Sustainable development means ensuring good conditions on this planet for future generations.
