First Sentence
My purpose in this study is to fill a gap in current understanding of nonformal education in Thailand. In conducting the research for this study, I wanted to go beyond the official statements of government policy, and learn how policy makers and administrators in the Thai government's Adult Education Division cope with the daily problems of administration of nonformal education programmes.
