In the so-called "developing countries" there is on the aver-
age less than one institution per country that imparts educa-
tion in photogrammetry in a modest scale. Remote sensing cuts
a more sorry figure. It still stays more remote. In our
world which is "shrinking" (because of communications ex-
plosion) and 'changing" (because of the modern technological
innovations), one must carefully design the curricula and
programs, particularly where there is little or none. The
efforts of the Working Group have been intended to ameliorate
the situation.
On the basis of our group effort, we have identified our
priorities, viz., (1) A need for an international assessment
of manpower and facilities in our fields; (2) A need for
developing unified curricula; and (3) A need for collabora-
tive research studies and cooperation in sharing educational
materials and teaching and research personnel.
