• Education is a process of expediting learning, acquiring knowledge,
values, and virtue. It contributes to the development of better people
around the globe. It is more of an enduring method in which people
gain information, skills, and ethics.
• There is a narrow line that runs between learning and education. We
learn from everything we come across, from birth to death. On the
contrary, we get educated at a certain point in our life with imparted
knowledge

3. Societal impact of education
• Education is important in the creation of any democratic society. As Franklin
D. Roosevelt says, “Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their
choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safeguard of democracy,
therefore, is education.” People need a good education if they want a good
democracy.
• Education is needed to make a society geopolitically stable. Without a proper
educational system available to everyone, terrorists could use free education as
a way to radicalise people. In other words, geopolitical stability is one of
education’s most powerful effects on society.

• Education helps promote tolerance in a
society and helps reduce common conflicts
between diverse populations in an urban
setting. Helen Keller said that “The highest
result of education is tolerance.” Educating
members of society about other people who
either live in the society or its neighboring
states have the power to reduce many
conflicts.
• Education has the power to help societies,
and the world in general, change for the
better. According to Nelson Mandela,
“Education is the most powerful weapon
which you can use to change the world.
Malcolm X says that: “Education is the
passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs
to those who prepare for it today.” Education
is a powerful tool that can be used to make
the world a better place to live in.
