LACK OF EDUCATION
Social Issue in the Philippines
Lack of education is one of the social issues that we experience in our time today. A lack of education is defined as a state in which people have a lower-than-average level of common knowledge about basic things that they would urgently need in their daily lives. This could include fundamental skills in math, writing, spelling, and so on. The consequences of a lack of education can be disastrous.
​
Today, education remains an inaccessible right for millions of children around the world. More than 72 million children of primary education age are not in school and 759 million adults are illiterate and do not have the awareness necessary to improve both their living conditions and those of their children.
​
We must be informed that a lack of education is a major issue that our country is experiencing because our future and lives are at risk, which is why this issue must be resolved as soon as possible.
