We understand education to mean the encouragement as well as the delivery of the means to help people to inform themselves of the significance of the world beyond their normal communities and outside the bounds of their families and personal experience. We understand rural to mean any environment which can result in forms of isolation, caused by economic, geographic, physical or social factors, which inhibit people from realising their full personal enjoyment and their potential as contributing members of the Australian society. The three major tasks in expanding the universe of education for rural people in Australia therefore involve:
educating rural people to their needs in a rapidly changing economic, political and social environment;
educating rural people on the irreversible and unavoidable changes which will transmogrify the demography and economy of Australia within their lifetimes;
educating rural people on the range of facilities, support services and technologies which they can use to enhance their cultural, economic, personal and social well being.
