overtake

Investment in education, lifelong learning and in research are not theoretical problems, but an objective that must be pursued at once because our international competitors are overtaking us, or have already done so.
L’investissement dans l’enseignement, dans la formation permanente et dans la recherche ne doit pas rester une question abstraite. Il doit devenir un objectif immédiat, parce que nos concurrents internationaux sont en train de nous dépasser ou l’ont déjà fait.
