The 4th APEC Education Ministerial Meeting (AEMM) will be convened in Lima, Peru in 2008. The delegate from Peru declared to host the Meeting with the support of the participating economies at the 23rd APEC EDNET Meeting.
In preparation for this Meeting, a 3-day Pre-Ministerial policy and research symposium was proposed by Peru, China, and United States to set a theme and agenda preceding the 4th AEMM. The Symposium will be held in China early next year with the theme of ‘Respecting the Past and the Envisioning the Future’, which was confirmed at the 29th APEC HRDWG Meeting in Brisbane. And it will mainly deal with four priorities identified at the 3rd AEMM in 2004: English and Other languages; Math & Science; Using ICT for teaching; Educational reform and Governance.
