The impact of education on a person's
life is huge, it builds their character
and personality, opens the door to
employment opportunities, etc.
Keeping the perspective of society in
mind, the impact of education goes
way deeper than the bracket of growth.
Let's explore in detail the impact of
education on society:
Builds the Base of Democracy
"Government of the people, by the
people, for the people, shall not perish
from the Earth."
- Abraham Lincoln
The system around the world is based
on this quote given to the world by
Abraham Lincoln. However, to
develop a system of the people, by the
people, and for the people, something
has to connect with the people. This
bracket of filling the space of
connectivity is filled by education.
Education is not about the transfer of
information, but one of its core factors
also consists of equipping an
individual to make a decision. This
power of making a decision that would
decide the future is given to the
common people through education.
People learn history, behaviour
patterns, etc., with a collaboration on
all this; education is used as a tool that
helps society build the base of
democracy.
Reducing Poverty
Statistically, more than 9.2 % of the
people in the world live in poverty.
Though the privileged class often
ignore these millions of people, the
government have taken initiatives to
improve the condition of society.
Education not only helps the people to
be specialised in one thing and also
teaches them how to make a living.
Education has been an effective factor
in the rapid development of European
th
th
countries in the 18 and 19 centuries.
Helping many declining arcs showing
countries to jump back from poverty.
This is the impact education has on the
uplifting of society.
Gateway to Fundamental Rights
After the second world war, every
individual in the world was given
rights on the basis of humanity.
Though many countries brought these
rights into action, spreading awareness
about these rights is difficult.
Education plays a crucial role in
making the process easier and making
every generation aware of these rights.
Fundamental rights like the right to
live, freedom of speech and
expression, freedom of thoughts, etc.,
are some of the many. Education over
the years has become a gateway to
spreading awareness about
fundamental rights.
Improving Social Lifestyle
People can now satisfy their cultural
requirements with a better awareness
of the industrialised world and a higher
living standard. Going to the theatre,
exhibitions, or concerts is enjoyable
and enriches one's social life. Indeed,
life is about more than just surviving,
and education allows for a higher
standard of living, more interpersonal
understanding, and personal fulfilment
through school, employment, and
extracurricular activities.
th
Modern life in the 20 century is all
about lifestyle, and education is the
reason behind it. With continuous
improvement in making life easier and
better, people are ready to satisfy all
their needs and develop in this context.
Attaining Geopolitical Stability
To make a society geopolitically stable,
education is required. Terrorists could
exploit free education to radicalise
individuals if there isn't a proper
educational system available to
everyone. In other words, one of
education's most powerful effects on
society is geopolitical stability.
When there is no formal education, the
conflicts within a society increase.
Though most of the ideologies revolve
around the idea of freedom, if
education is not perceived, then
violence and crime are the tools used.
With education, people get aware of
their right to raise their voices and
know the importance of a stable
situation that puts society on the right
track of growth.
Hope for the Future
One of the most profound benefits
education has on a community is
giving individuals hope that they may
improve their situation in life. "Let us
consider of education as the means of
developing our greatest skills," urged
John F. Kennedy, "because in every
one of us there is a private hope and
ambition that, if realised, may be
converted into benefit for everyone
and greater strength for our nation."
JFK's statements regarding America
are applicable to all societies on the
planet.
