Summary: | Who finances educational facilities? What are the criteria used and how are they applied? Each country has its own system; however, the general trends are towards diversification of funding sources and decentralisation of responsibility. This publication examines the links between decentralisation and new means of financing.

The greatest challenge in education funding consists of achieving compatibility between these objectives and technological development. |
