Current challenges
The current challenges relate to these difficulties:
We need to recognize the importance of life skills-both practical and psycho-social-as part of education which leads to the full development of human potential and to the development of society;
The links between psycho-social skills and practical skills must be more clearly spelled out, so that educators can promote both together and find effective ways to do this;
Since life skills are taught as part of a wide range of subjects, teachers need to have training in how to put them across and how to monitor learners growth in these areas;
In designing curricula and syllabuses for academic subjects, there must be a balance between content teaching and attention to the accompanying life skills;
A more conscious and deliberate effort to promote life skills will enable learners to become more active citizens in the life of society.
Policy optionswhat governments should do
Recognize and actively advocate for the transformational role of education in realizing human potential and in socio-economic development;
Ensure that curricula and syllabuses address life skills and give learners the opportunity to make real-life applications of knowledge, skills and attitudes;
Show how life skills of all kinds apply in the world of work, for example, negotiating and communication skills, as well practical skills;
