 | | By "In-School Population" we mean the program designed for Asian and African schools based on the UNESCO Handbook for Preparing Teachers for Population Education (Paris, 1983, and funded by the United Nations Population Fund (formerly U.N. Fund for Population Activities and still known as UNFPA). |
 | | By 1983, fifteen years later, this Population Education Section, it is said (page 1) had "implemented and coordinated a large number of projects at national, regional, global, and inter-regional levels, including the promotion -- both within the school system and in the out-of-school context -- of interdisciplinary programs on population education and related fields. |
 | | With that definition of population education, we lay people in that field might be excused for thinking that population education is education about population-that it would talk about demography, the factors that affect the rise and fall of populations, population variables, and so on. |
