The Prevalence of Mutual Improvement in Adult Education in New Zealand 1870-1915.

Dakin, James C.

International Journal of Lifelong Education, v10 n3 p243-54 Jul-Sep 1991

Mutual improvement societies were at the forefront of adult education in New Zealand from 1870-1915. Although university extension and technical education were major contributors to adult education in Britain and Australia, they were less successful in New Zealand; thus the mutual improvement societies were predominant.
