Introduction to the Project

The Finale project was created to provide a comprehensive analysis of financing adult learning in Europe

In the context of demographic change and increasingly complex needs of society, adult education is a crucial instrument for promoting social cohesion. However, adult learning is often underfunded, compared to other sectors of the education system. More often than not, adult education throughout Europe faces the challenge to secure its financing, and, where possible, improve it. However, we know too little about funding tools and how to invest in order to get the best results. There is a need for better foundations for decision-making in financing adult learning.
