text: children. Efforts must be made to ensure that no child is treated as an outcast from society. F. Basic education and literacy 20. The international community, including virtually all the Governments of the world, have undertaken a commitment at the World Conference on Education for All at Jomtien, Thailand, to increase significantly educational opportunity for over 100 million children and nearly 1 billion adults, two thirds of them girls and women, who at present have no access to basic education and literacy.

This suggests that the text is more closely related to categories that deal with social and human development.
