Online discussion on the future of basic skills

On 27 June, EPALE hosted an online discussion focusing on the role of initiatives related to basic skills in future EU reforms addressing knowledge and skills. The debate featured Sam Duncan, Associate Professor of Adult Education and Literacy at the UCL Institute of Education, and Estera Možina, MSc, from the SIAE. The moderator was Tamás Harangozó from EBSN. Many other stakeholders in the field of adult education and basic skills also shared their thoughts, resources and suggestions in the written discussion. If you missed the discussion, its recording is available on EPALE.
