Abstract	A meeting report on education within the context of futures studies is divided into four chapters. Chapter One discusses the background of the meeting. Chapter Two outlines the studies presented by each of the eight Asian and Pacific nations represented at the meeting: Australia, India, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Korea, and Vietnam. Responses of these nations to major issues are also presented. Chapter Three, "Issues and Themes for the Region," identifies the value of futures studies, the role of forecasting techniques, and the implications of futures studies for education. The latter category includes discussion of organizations, the interaction between political and educational sectors, curriculum, resources, and personnel. The final chapter looks at current learnings and future perspectives, examining interface studies, education and communication, education and employment, education and technology, and the role of UNESCO. Appendices contain the agenda, list of participants, and list of documents. (LP)
