Abstract

Culture and education are two favourite themes much discussed today. They are obviously interdependant. Cutlure gives us the background of
our education while education improves the standard of our culture. Taking these factors into account a national conference was organized in Bangalore, India, from 9th to 16th March 1986. The conference .was co-sponsored by the Pontifical Council on Culture, Rome and All Indian Association for Christian Higher Education. Sr. Karuna Mary Braganza, the General Secretary to the AICHE has successfully accomplished her job as the national organizer of the conference. The general theme discussed was "Cultural Process Shaping India Today-Education's Response". This central theme was viewed from different angles such as Tribal and Urban culture, Religion and Secular culture and culture of Science and Technology.
