I’ve found that “educate” is a losing game. By all means educate, but don’t forget that 1) there’s a never ending list of things to educate people about, from climate change to personal finance, cyber security, fake news, hoaxes - and those are the flavors of the current cycle. There’s already too much to teach people 2) it doesn’t always take- and people are often too busy to sit and absorb more info. Especially that which is not directly linked to their immediate goals. Finally - I think fixing learning is a proxy for making society work properly in the first place. Educating people is not the solution, but a side effect of getting things working correctly - meaning affordable education, nutrition, healthcare, safety, good teachers, available jobs- these are all pre reqs for teaching people, and having them be able to learn and absorb information.
