• Resumen

  • This symposium examines the different approaches taken by international organizations (IOs) to promote adulteducation and lifelong learning policies. The session comprises four inputs: Elfert and Boeren give historical accounts of theapproaches of UNESCO and the EU respectively. Rubenson contrasts the different political frames of UNESCO and OECD.Schuller provides a personal perspective on OECD’s work over the decades. Loosely applying the three dimensions of thephilosophy/rhetoric, the ‘policy grip’, and the level of resource commitment as an analytical frame, the session aims at sparkingdiscussion about what lessons can be learnt from IO’s engagement with lifelong learning.
