The objective is to help generate a broader vision of adult education and lifelong learning within the framework of human rights, creating connections to the most important globalization issues that are currently affecting the world, and support the emergence of a new leadership, for the global network of adult educators, to secure the regeneration of ICAE and the movements for lifelong learning in general.
This space for mutual learning will be key in the preparatory process towards next international adult education conference, CONFINTEA VI, to be held in Brazil in 2009.
The course will be in English and will involve lectures and discussions, case study presentations and analysis, as well as debates. Participants will be trained to work as a global team, by experienced and high-level experts from different regions who will give their perspectives on advocacy issues.
