Education and Productivity in Traditional Sectors: an Empirical Analysis,
by Tnéopiste Butare.
This study is an attempt to determine the effects of formal and non-formal education on the growth of the so-called low-technology production sectors. The findings of our analysis tend to corroborate the hypothesis that education is one of the most important factors affecting the production function of these sectors. Another important finding which confirms similar results obtained for the high-technology sector is that there is overall complementarity between education and capital inputs. This complementarity is very important in developing educational investment policies: when activities in any given sector begin to be modernized, skills acquired from primary and non-formal education are likely to be more beneficial. So that modern techniques are used to their fullest advantage, our labour must be better trained. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
