Significant historical points are brought out, but the main focus is on what this cooperation means today, after so many years of activity and hard work. The report traces the efforts of the Member States of the European Community to gain a better understanding of the education systems in other Member nations. Initial and continuing training programs remain a major focus of Member efforts since economic growth and development depends on a knowledgeable work force. Reference is also made to Community actions in the field of youth policy and to Tempus, the program for higher education cooperation with the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. The report is divided into four sections: (1) "From the Initial Commitment to Today's Initiatives"; (2) "Developments and Areas of Action Since 1976"; (3) "Actors and Partners in Cooperation"; and (4) "Constructing the Future on the Foundation of Past Achievements and Wide-Ranging Consultations." The volume concludes with a list of 352 references, including the main legislative texts and documents which have formed the basis of the European Community's education, training, and youth actions and programs since 1976.
