Abstract: Education: A report prepared for submission to the seventh session of the Economic and Social Council showed that seventy-five percent of funds available to UNESCO in the first three months of 1948 were allocated for the emergency purchase and distribution of books, educational material, scientific and technical equipment. In the fundamental education program for 1948, the two main elements were: 1) the establishment of a clearing-house of information through which techniques and methpds of education would be collected, analyzed and disseminated to member states; and 2) the giving of aid to member states in conducting pilot projects in Haiti, China, British East Africa and Peru, which aimed at abolishing illiteracy. From April 26 to May 1, experts on fundamental education met in Paris to discuss plans for future action.
