Volume: 73 pages, pdf

Description:

The idea of educating and teaching adults has long historical roots, and is an established component of contemporary socioeconomic development policies, both at the global and the national levels. Modern development policies regard education as a common asset, a fundamental human right and the basis for pursuing all other human rights and freedoms, such as the right to work and to choice of employment, security, equality, freedom of expression and thought and to participation in the cultural life of the community. It is also of crucial importance in addressing global socioeconomic and political issues such as: peace, tolerance, sustainable development, public health and nutrition, concern for parenting and the family, the emancipation of women, the protection and emancipation of marginal and vulnerable groups and groups and individuals with special needs, employment, social cohesion and inclusion, poverty reduction and economic development.
