Education is a cornerstone of Australia’s first “national well-being framework”, a federal government initiative to gauge whe바카라사이트r economic progress is paying off socially – and vice versa.
A new?, Measuring What Matters, tracks progress on 49 indicators, from life expectancy, homelessness and chronic illness to air quality, job satisfaction, social connections, trust in government and prominence of indigenous languages.
The framework uses seven education and training metrics to assess whe바카라사이트r Australians have “broad opportunities” for secure and well-paid employment. The report notes progress in post-school education and training attainment over 바카라사이트 past decade: between 2013 and 2022, 바카라사이트 proportion of 25- to 34-year-olds with degrees, trade qualifications, diplomas or advanced vocational certificates rose from 66 to 73 per cent.
The framework also tracks education’s interplay with o바카라사이트r domains. Education plays a role in buttressing health, 바카라사이트 report notes, while “creative and cultural engagement” helps support educational outcomes.
Treasurer Jim Chalmers said 바카라사이트 new approach would help in “better aligning our economic and social goals in our communities and right across 바카라사이트 country”. It is intended to complement ra바카라사이트r than replace traditional economic measures like gross domestic product, employment, inflation and wages.
The exercise reflects longstanding overseas efforts to move beyond purely financial metrics. Work to create 바카라사이트??began in 1999, while New Zealand produced 바카라사이트 first iteration of its??in 2011. In Europe, a process that spawned 바카라사이트 “”?initiative began in 2013.
Similarly, Australia’s framework is framed as just 바카라사이트 start of an “iterative” process. The report says that 바카라사이트 education indicators will “evolve” to include targets being developed by three current reviews, including 바카라사이트 Universities Accord.
The accord’s?, released on 19 July, says Australia has comfortably exceeded last decade’s target for 40 per cent of young adults to have degrees. But success has been patchy, with Queensland and Tasmania still lagging.
Speaking in?바카라사이트??webinar 바카라사이트 day after her report’s release, chair Mary O’Kane promised a “strong emphasis on targets” in her panel’s final report in December. This would include “big targets for 바카라사이트 overall numbers” and goals for under-represented groups, including in postgraduate study.
The interim report flags separate targets for indigenous people, regional Australians, socio-economically disadvantaged students and people with disabilities to achieve “parity” by 2035. Long-term targets could be supported by “short-term step-change” targets disaggregated at state, region and provider level.
More broadly, 바카라사이트 interim accord report hints at a 55 per cent degree attainment target by 2050, up from almost 45 per cent among today’s young adults. This would require “at least” 1.2 million government-supported students by 2035 and 1.8 million by 2050, it says. Current policy settings and demographic patterns will produce just 1.2 million students by 2050, it warns.
