SKILLS, Several Keys In Learning to Learn Skills.

The Federation of Associations of Adults Education (FAEA) is a non-profit organization that, within the social initiative, promotes a critical, open and participative model of lifelong learning. It was constituted in 1984 by different and diverse entities with the common goal of promoting Adult Education (AE), thus promoting the exchange of experiences and coordinating the work of the different centres and entities at a national level. Its mission is to develop a model of Adult Education which is participatory, integral, intercultural, popular and shows solidarity. According to this model each person is agent of his or her own learning process. Its main objective is the attention to and participation of those social and cultural disadvantaged communities and people (population in general without basic qualifications, population without labour qualifications, unemployed people, women, minorities (Roma, African, Asian population...), young adults (+16) at risk of social exclusion...). In order to achieve this objective, FAEA promotes the exchange of experiences and the coordination among the diverse federated associations, proposing specific, open and progressive alternatives for the improvement of adult education.
