When Education does not Influence Behavior

“When education does not influence behavior”: That was the statement made by Bill Clinton at the recent AIDS conference in Canada. That sentence has not left my head I have been pondering for the answers with no luck. At first I wanted to answer the statement with levels of development. Simply the culture is not at the moral stages of development needed to progress to the next higher stages of growth. (But) that is not an answer? Transformative techniques are need but what? Consciousness or spiritual development is still education and how would we implement those types of program with out inflecting judgment and avoiding biases? The only starting point to a possible answerer I can think of is in an older blog post: In time of war send the musician in first.
