WEA campaign for lifelong learning


In the run up to the general election the Workers’ Educational Association (WEA) will be making sure that adult education and lifelong learning is firmly in the minds of our existing and aspiring politicians. Since 1903, its has argued the case for 'Learning for Life' and democratic participation - and there's no better time to celebrate and promote the two than in the weeks before a general election.

In September 2009 the adult learning sector welcomed Learning Through Life, a report which makes ten recommendations for a stronger national lifelong learning strategy. The WEA is supporting the proposals outlined in the report and asking MPs and prospective parliamentary candidates (PPCs) to do the same.
