It examines the forces shaping the work carried out by the Commonwealth Secretariat, including ministerial mandates and meetings of experts and reviews the varied programmes of activities that have resulted. Particular acknowledgement is given to the seminal influence of the Mauritius Meeting of Experts on Education in Small States held in 1985 and to the seven sets of thematic activities that this initiated. The book is designed to contribute to a new Commonwealth consultative process, and suggests a possible framework to help identify key questions for contemporary consideration, and potential themes and strategies for further development.
