El trabajo de la UNESCO sobre la educación de personas adultas y la educación como bien común: Aportes y reflexiones

Abstract

Adult education has been developed over time as a particular area of research, reflection and educationaaction; an area that favours a vision of education as a social action. In the light of the multiple crises of the contemporary world, this article reflects on the complementary role that adult education contributes to reinforce the educationavalue of social action for the development of contemporary societies. This development comes from the contributions that normative work offers us as well as the conceptual work on adult education and education as a common good, which has been carried out by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
