With the start of the school year, it is relevant to reflect on the crucial role that education plays in the development of Panama. All the issues we face as a country today are somehow related to the educational level of our population.
It is essential to form citizens with critical thinking, equipped to face the challenges of a constantly evolving society. Education not only provides knowledge but also fosters values, skills, and competencies necessary for a prosperous and sustainable future.
In this sense, it is necessary to invest in education as a fundamental pillar for the progress of the nation. Equipping new generations with the right tools and knowledge will allow them to contribute significantly to the growth and development of Panama.
As Nelson Mandela once said, "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." Therefore, it is imperative that authorities, society, and families work together to ensure quality and equitable education for all Panamanians.
Education and development go hand in hand and are the key to ensuring a prosperous and sustainable future for Panama. It is time to prioritize investment in the educational system as an investment in the future of the nation, ensuring that every child and young person has access to a comprehensive education that allows them to reach their full potential and contribute to the growth of the country.
