The Cooperative network of European adult education organizations is established to create a dynamic and collaborative partnership of adult education institutions dedicated to fostering the professional development of adult educators through various actions of sharing resources and exchanging insights. In turn, adult educators enable lifelong learning, equipping adult learners with essential digital skills, and providing inclusive educational opportunities, under the ERASMUS + programme. We envision a society where every adult has the opportunity to thrive and adapt in an ever-evolving digital world, contributing to personal growth, career development, and the betterment of their communities.
