Abstract

Obrazovanost stanovništva bitno određuje društveni i gospodarski razvoj svake države. Nalazimo se u vremenu u kojem obrazovanje postaje sve dostupnije, ali ipak postoje određeni dijelovi svijeta u kojima ono nije dostupno u dovoljnoj mjeri. Mnoge organizacije, poglavito na svjetskoj razini, upozoravaju na važnost obrazovanja djece i žena te se poduzimaju razne mjere kako bi se unaprijedile obrazovne mogućnosti. Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je pokazati provedivost Milenijskih ciljeva razvoja UN-a, ponajprije onih koji se odnose na suzbijanje siromaštva, ostvarivanje prava na primarno obrazovanje te uspostavljanje jednakosti među spolovima te istražiti problematiku obrazovanja i njenu ulogu kao pokretača razvoja države na primjeru Benina. Istraživanje je fokusirano na prostor Benina i to na razdoblje nakon uspostavljanja neovisnosti s posebnim naglaskom na prijelaz u 21. stoljeće kad su i doneseni Milenijski ciljevi razvoja UN-a. Vlastito kvantitativno istraživanje stavlja fokus na selo Hondji, smješteno u departmanu Ouémé. Analizirani su podatci o broju upisane djece, spolnoj strukturi učenika u spomenutoj školi te dinamika kretanja broja učenika u razdoblju od 2009./2010. do 2019./2020. školske godine. Provedena su dva strukturirana intervjua s dvjema osobama zaposlenima u beninskom obrazovnom sustavu. Za potrebe prikaza karakteristika beninskog obrazovnog sustava analizirana je dostupna literatura i izvori.

Abstract (english)

The education of the population significantly determines the social and economic development of each country. We are in a time when education is becoming more accessible, but there are still certain parts of the world where it is not available enough. Many organizations, especially at the global level, warn of the importance of educating children and women and take various measures to improve educational opportunities. The aim of this thesis is to show the feasibility of the UN Millennium Development Goals, especially those related to poverty reduction, realization of the right to primary education and gender equality, and to explore education and its role as a driver of state development, on the example of Benin. The research is focused on the area of Benin, in the period after the establishment of independence, with special emphasis on the transition to the 21st century, when the UN Millennium Development Goals were adopted. Own quantitative research focuses on the village of Hondji, located in the department of Ouémé. Data on the number of enrolled children, the gender structure of students
in the mentioned school and the dynamics of the number of students in the period from 2009/2010 until 2019/2020 school year were analysed. Two qualitative open-ended interviews were conducted with two people employed in the Benin education system. Available literature and sources were analysed to present the characteristics of the Benin education system.
