Yes, you heard me right, there are countries in the world that provides free university and college educations to their citizens; of course, taxpayers’ money funds all this. However, having the most educated citizens is very beneficial to the country because it provides everyone with the same opportunities to succeed in life, like the saying, ” No one is left behind.”
Education is a fundamental human right that should be accessible to everyone, regardless of socioeconomic status. Sadly, this is not the case in many parts of the world. In some countries, tuition fees are so high that ordinary people cannot afford to send their children to school.
