In June 2022 CONFINTEA VII Marrakech Framework for Action with a theme, “Harnessing the transformational power of Adult Learning and Education”, reaffirms that Adult Learning and Education (ALE) is a key component of lifelong learning, noting that ALE policies and practices apply to a wide range of ages, education levels, learning spaces and modalities. It also strongly affirms education, including ALE, as a fundamental human right – a commitment which is critical in understanding and framing education as a public endeavor and a common good. Likewise, it recognizes that lifelong learning is critical to all 17 goals and that, as a core dimension of lifelong learning, ALE is a key to its achievement.
