The 2024 EPALE Community Stories Initiative
Bloom, baby. Bloom!
Adult learning and education enables individuals and social groups to gain power over their environment and destiny. Participation in adult education (whether formal, non-formal or informal) can empower individuals, equipping them with new tools and opportunities, increasing their self-confidence and capacity to find employment, and to take control of their destinies.
That is how adult education enables people to develop awareness of themselves and their environment, and ultimately encourage them to be active players in their social role.
From the individual’s perspective to the societal one, Adult learning has the power to impact communities, to shape them, and to collectively play a role for development. While fostering personal empowerment, it promotes social engagement, and contributes to societal positive changes.
So, what’s your story of transformation and empowerment? How has adult learning and education changed your life? How has it rewritten your destiny? Or how has it changed the lives of your students?
The stories will be published on EPALE and compiled in a digital publication, the EPALE Community Storybook. Don’t miss out on the chance to be part of this Storybook!

StoryBook EPALE wydaje mi…
StoryBook EPALE wydaje mi się taką niedocenioną inicjatywą - a szkoda, bo jest to ciekawe - i estetycznie piękne działanie. Musiałam się przekonać do tej formy, ale jak już złapałam bakcyla to oglądałam materiały kilka lat wstecz. Serdecznie polecam - jako narzędzie autorefleksji i tworzenia europejskiej mozaiki historii.

Odlična inicijativa za deljenje dobrih primera iz prakse. Potrebno je dalje širenje mreže profesionalaca u ovoj oblasti, a vidljivost doprinosi promociji entuzijasta i institucija i omogućuje nove oblike saradnje.
