We live in a rapidly changing world. The future is forever approaching and always arriving. Happy days or challenging times; it’s not always easy to predict. Technology, for example, can help us in our work, but sometimes it can replace us. We owe it to ourselves and to our loved ones to be prepared. Education is the passport to the future. It helps us navigate the shocks and stresses of life events and adapt more easily to a world in which change is accelerating. It provides security for current and future generations. www.une.edu.au
