Higher Education for better Livelihood
Code of ethics - Government
Preamble
“The higher education system is seen to make a fundamental contribution to the future
of any Country and plays a vital role in Country’s intellectual, economic, cultural and
social development. The higher education sector educates our future professional
workforce, creates future leaders, provides jobs, drives much of our economic and
regional success, and facilitates cultural and trade links with other countries. The sector
plays a key role in the growing knowledge and innovation based economic health. It
enriches our social and environmental landscape and promotes the tolerance debate
that underpins society.”
The Major area of focus for Government in Higher Education has been drafted as below
1. Transformation of national Higher Education System should be the political
agenda of each Country of the World.
“The transformation of national higher education systems is on the political agenda in
every country in the world. The higher education (HE) sector is being urged to
‘modernise’, ‘adapt’, ‘diversify’, ‘marketise’, and is expected to become ‘entrepreneurial’,
‘competitive’, more ‘efficient’ and more ‘effective’, more ‘service oriented’, and more
‘societally relevant’. It also has to improve the ‘quality of its processes and products’, its
‘relationship with the labour-market’, and the ‘governance and management’ of its
institutions, the universities and colleges. It is generally acknowledged that this
transformation can only be successful if the traditional steering relationship between
state authorities and higher education institutions is changed dramatically.”

higher education institutions to respond adequately to these demands.
