WHAT IS LIFELONG LEARNING AND
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
In simple terms, lifelong learning can be explained as the
ongoing pursuit of knowledge both inside and outside of formal
education institutions. Lifelong learning puts an emphasis on
the concept that learning is done everywhere, everyday, by
people of all ages, abilities and interests.
The learning activities a person undertakes might be for
professional or personal development, but can always enhance
that person’s social inclusion, employability, active citizenship,
competitiveness, self-sustainability, adaptability, resilience,
ability to take advantage of opportunities and more.
