A team of Latvian educators and specialists from DEP just launched a country adaptation of the student book Beyond Economic Growth for secondary schools in Latvia called Pasaule un Latvia (The World and Latvia).

The World and Latvia encourages discussions on a wide range of development issues by comparing levels of development in Latvia with other countries around the world.

If you would like to order this book, please contact Junior Achievement Latvia at www.jal.lv, or visit your nearest bookstore--in Latvia!
