Knowledge industry for children

Abstract

The acquisition and production of knowledge is currently a crucial goal for countries aspiring to leadership and progress, both in the present and in the future. Starting from childhood in this field is considered a fundamental step towards sustainable development. The children's knowledge industry is characterised by efforts to prepare children scientifically and skilfully so that they are able to adapt to their environment, engage in quality production, provide the necessary added value and face constantly evolving challenges. This industry manifests itself in the educational content and its alignment with the indicators of the knowledge economy, as well as in the abundance of cultural products in the environment that are suitable for children of different stages and age groups. It is also based on the investment climate and specialised scientific research in the field, as well as the level of cooperation with leading institutions.
