Abstract

The first article of our autumn issue of 1973 (Vol. III, No. 3) entitled ‘Should One Develop Nonformal Education’ was a large extract of a report1 by Philip H. Coombs and his colleagues at the International Council for Educational Development (ICED) to Unicef. The Mexican group, Fomento Cultural y Educativo, A. C., which offers us here its thoughts on the report, is concerned with planning and introducing new educational models.

The members of the discussion group were Eduardo Lastra, Vicente Arredondo, Ernesto Camou and Enrique González Torres.
