  2. Identify and discuss the burning issues on Equal opportunities;

The workshops will provide a learning arena for everyone offering good practice case presentations and the possibility to establish and renew contacts for further cooperation as well as discuss the ways of transferring the project results and ideas to new learning contexts.

  1. Learning in later life
  2. Consumers as learners
