Adult Learning and Education (ALE) helps people understand changes, respond to it, and transform themselves and our shared world. ALE includes all forms of education and training: formal (schools, vocational colleges, universities), non-formal (courses and trainings in training centers, tutoring), as well as self-study.

On 22 March 2021 the five year global ALE campaign was launched. The campaign will increase the visibility of adult learning and education worldwide, and empower civil society to speak with one voice to advance the rights of all youth and adults to quality education and lifelong learning.
