Η διαμόρφωση των Ευρωπαϊκών πολιτικών στην Εκπαίδευση Ενηλίκων: Βασικά μηνύματα και σημαντικές προκλήσεις


Νικολέττα Ιωάννου
Resumen

Το παρόν άρθρο αναλύει τις κύριες επιρροές και τους παράγοντες που επηρέασαν τη διαμόρφωση της πολιτικής για την εκπαίδευση ενηλίκων στην Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση (ΕΕ), καθώς και τα βασικά μηνύματα, τις κύριες κατευθύνσεις και τις βασικές έννοιες που επισημαίνονται στα σχετικά έγγραφα πολιτικής. Προκειμένου να διερευνηθούν τα παραπάνω, πραγματοποιήθηκε ανασκόπηση των επίσημων εγγράφων πολιτικής της ΕΕ για την εκπαίδευση ενηλίκων τα τελευταία είκοσι χρόνια. Η εκπαίδευση ενηλίκων απέκτησε εξέχουσα θέση στην πολιτική της ΕΕ κυρίως ως συστατικό ζωτικής σημασίας της διά βίου μάθησης. Ωστόσο, διαφαίνεται ότι η έμφαση στις πολιτικές αυτές δίνεται κυρίως στην υλοποίηση των οικονομικών στόχων της Ένωσης, εστιάζοντας στις τάσεις και τις ανάγκες της αγοράς εργασίας, όπως είναι η απασχολησιμότητα και η ανταγωνιστικότητα. Αυτό το άρθρο καταλήγει στη θέση ότι οι πολιτικές για την εκπαίδευση ενηλίκων πρέπει να διασφαλίζουν την απρόσκοπτη συμμετοχή των ενηλίκων στη μάθηση, έτσι ώστε να προάγουν την προσωπική και κοινωνική ανάπτυξη και την ευημερία των ενηλίκων και να συμβάλλουν στη διαμόρφωση πιο συνεκτικών και δίκαιων κοινωνιών.
