EU's Role & Support
Hogyan támogatja az EU a felnőttkori tanulásban részt vevő személyeket és projekteket?
Az EU számos módon támogatja az európai felnőttkori tanulási szektort - kutatások kezdeményezésétől, bevált gyakorlatok megosztásától, az innovációk előmozdításáig és az egyének továbbképzésének finanszírozásáig.
Erasmus+
Widely recognised as the most successful EU programme, Erasmus+ has at least 5.8% of its total budget available to support:
- Learning mobility for adult education staff and adult learners;
- International cooperation between organisations (e.g. adult learning centres);
- Initiatives for policy innovation (e.g. networks supporting specific policy areas)).
The European Social Fund
The European Social Fund Plus (ESF+) is the European Union (EU)’s main instrument for investing in people and supporting the implementation of the European Pillar of Social Rights. With a budget of almost EUR 99.3 billion for the period 2021-2027, the ESF+ will continue to provide an important contribution to the EU’s employment, social, education and skills policies, including structural reforms in these areas.
Eurydice
Eurydice is a network whose task is to explain how education systems are organised in Europe and how they work. Eurydice publishes descriptions of national education systems (on adult education and training, see chapter 8), comparative studies devoted to specific topics, indicators and statistics in the field of education.
