Abstract	This paper represents the final report of a regional seminar (Asian countries) on educational alternatives held under the auspices of UNESCO in December 1976. The seminar focused on educational services for children from 5 to 14 years of age and emphasized the needs of children in poverty areas. Limitations and inequities in the current educational systems are discussed. Some of the educational issues considered in the seminar include: the needs of children attending and not attending school; urban-rural differences; socioeconomic differences; the child's life in and out of the classroom; the relevance of schooling to future needs (as a worker and as part of the community); consideration of the individual's ability, background, and future development; and the role of the parent and community in the educational system. Local organization and supervision are considered necessary for educational relevancy. The report concludes with discussions of various methods, resources, and management considerations for developing and delivering educational services. Suggestions for future actions at the national, international, and regional level are included. (BD)
