WE-ASC Education Culture Congress
New Delhi, India on 12-15 January 2011
The World Education - Arts, Sciences and Education Culture (WE-ASC) Congress series revisits educational philosophy, methodology and content development and draws special attention to course and curriculum development as well as evaluation and accreditation systems in primary, secondary and in particular, higher education. It further explores how education can help develop mental, emotional and physical skills to help facilitate personal excellence as well as psychological and socio-economic wellbeing as well as evolving integral and holistic attitudes and formats in education pedagogy, in the challenging times the world faces today.
WE-ASC also explores sensory, artistic, scientific, psychological, cultural and spiritual approaches for imparting education and transmission of knowledge. The movement examines modern as well as traditional knowledge systems, literate and non-literate, within both tangible and intangible systems and formats. It seeks to evolve fresh formats in skills training with traditional and modern knowledge for socio-economic empowerment and sustainable development. It focuses on cultural connections and participatory research in arts and the evolving culture of education, through arts and artistic sciences in education as well as health-care.
WE-ASC 2011 will work towards conclusions and resolutions on collaborations, ethics, evaluation and accreditation in Education and Cultural knowledge systems, which will be drafted by the concluding day of the Congress for follow up with research and policy making institutions, educational institutions and government bodies internationally. The participants will include educators and educationists, parliamentarians and other government representatives, artists and cultural institutions, thinkers, policy makers, and administrators with special inputs by youth and women from various countries and cultures.
