Adult Education and Adult Environmental Education as Twin Mechanism for Sustainable Environment and Community Development (Published)
The over dependence of the developmental process in the rural and urban areas on national governments, and failure to meet the rising social and economic expectations of the human condition arising from teeming population, has necessitated the need for countries to reappraise and restructure their development architecture through the form and content of their educational provision. It is against this backdrop of a grim picture of more claimants for social and economic infrastructure, environmental degradation, educated unemployment and underemployment, and lack of connection between education and work, that this paper makes a number of proposals aimed at educational reforms in Nigeria, through the process of adult education and environmental education in order to achieve sustainable environment and community development.
