While many countries are already devoting a good share of their budgets to education, much of that investment is misdirected. That was the conclusion of a 2003 joint UNICEF-World Bank workshop held in Burkina Faso entitled "Investment Options in Education for All: Addressing gender and other disparities", highlighted in this 15-page brochure. Proceedings from the workshop can be obtained from UNICEF's Education Section, along with a CD-ROM of background papers and workshop presentations.
