Victoria Leads Victorian Adult Education Fight For Funding
Victoria boasts a lead in adult education among Australian states yet lags behind Britain, the USA and Scandinavia in cultural funding. At the CAE regional conference in Shepparton Mr Colin Badger warned of insufficient support as 250 delegates from 20 towns gathered after a concert of Australian works and bush ballads. He urged boosting Victoria’s evening class funds from 9600 pounds to 40000 and noted cultural aid of 30000 pounds remains small beside overseas levels.
