Adult Literacy and Lifelong Learning
Adult literacy refers to the ability of adults to read, write, and understand information effectively, enabling them to function in society and the workplace. Lifelong learning emphasizes the importance of continuously acquiring new skills and knowledge throughout one’s life. Together, these concepts underline the need for ongoing education beyond traditional schooling, helping adults adapt to changes in the job market, engage in their communities, and improve their quality of life. Programs supporting adult literacy and lifelong learning are crucial for personal development and economic growth.
