When allocating funds in the 2014-2020 European budget, EU governments wisely decided to increase funding for education and research – the only areas in which they did so. This commitment to safeguarding education and research funding should be reflected at all levels of policymaking.
好消息是欧洲领导人似乎认识到了追求知识的价值。在分配2014—2020年欧洲预算资金时，欧盟各国政府明智地决定增加教育和研究经费——这也是唯一的经费增加领域。这一捍卫教育和研究经费的承诺应该体现在各个层次的决策中。
