The Pacific Islands Educational Leadership Summit offered a forum to major educational leaders of the Pacific Basin to share experiences, perspectives and aspirations regarding the future of Pacific education. The summit covered five major themes: cultural survival in times of rapid change, economic development in small societies, relationships between Pacific Rim countries and former colonial powers, commonalities and differences in educational systems of Pacific countries, and establishing/ maintaining Pacific Island linkages. This volume contains the keynote speeches for each of the five summit days plus summaries of the panel discussions which followed. Also included are the resolutions and the Pacific Educator's Statement of Philosophy proposed by the discussion groups.
