Lifelong Learning

is crucial, not only for competitiveness, employability and economic prosperity, but also for social inclusion, active citizenship and the personal fulfilment of people living and working in the knowledge-based economy.
Via ICD-Conferences weReurope will undertake to:

enhance LLL by means of culture and art
giving EU Citizens the chance to learn together about Europe and from each other
develop a strategy for recognition of learning outcomes
draft pedagogical strategies to overcome cultural gaps

Participants from partner organisations as well as invited experts will provide abstracts on LLL, addressing the following issues:

What means LLL in your country? (Formal, non-formal, informal learning?)
What importance does it have for the public?
What importance does it have in Education policy? Is there a mission for LLL?
Is there a strategy to involve more people in learning processes?
Which bodies are responsible?
How is it financed?
What is your personal relationship/experience to/in processes of LLL?

Abstracts by experts from all 27 member states that should help devise the pedagogical strategy as well as the strategy for recognition of informal learning outcomes will be collected in the course of the 5 ICD-Conferences and can be downloaded here: [Format: pdf]
