International Adult Learners’ Week in Canada promotes lifelong and life-wide learning. The 2008 event is linked to the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which was adopted in 1948. Within Canada, March 3-9, 2008 has been designated as Adult Learners’ Week. Adult Learning Knowledge Centre sponsors 9 projects (PDF, 23 KB) celebrating Adult Learners Week.
Canada joined this international movement in 2002 through a partnership with the Canadian Commission for UNESCO. To learn more about UNESCO’s role in adult learning visit the Website.
