POLICY

EAEA is working hard developing its policy advocacy on lifelong and lifewide learning. One of our approaches includes a close co-operation with the Commission.

All EAEA members are invited to participate actively in this work.


Adult Education trends and issues

Recently a consortium lead by EAEA finished the work for a tender of DG EAC from the Commission on adult education trends and issues.

Communication on Adult Learning -it's never too late to learn

In October 2006 the European Commission published the Communication on Adult Learning entitled "It's never too late to learn!"

     

Action plan on Adult Learning

In September 2007, the European Commission launched its action plan on adult learning. It´s a follow-up to the Communication on adult learning.

CONFINTEA

The sixth International Conference on Adult Education is scheduled for May 2009, in Brazil. EAEA is an active part in the preparations leading up to the event. This section will be expanded shortly with links, background materials and documents.

     

European Qualifications Framework

On 13 July 2005 , the European Commission published a proposal for a European Qualifications Framework. This proposal was to be subject to consultation over a six month period.
