The European Association for the Education of Adults (EAEA) is the voice of adult education in Europe, with more than 120 members in 43 different countries. Through strategic engagement with EU institutions and national NGOs, we influence policies, prioritize lifelong learning, and empower professionals. Our initiatives, including the EAEA Grundtvig Award, recognize excellence and foster collaboration. Spearheading projects on policy reform, professionalization, and social inclusion, EAEA remains committed to advancing adult education as a catalyst for societal empowerment across the continent. 

EAEA aims to work consistently towards a more equal, sustainable Europe in which the citizens participate democratically and actively, where people have the skills and knowledge to live and work healthily and productively and take part in cultural and civic activities from very young to very old age through adult education, that can help change lives and transform societies – it is a human right and common good.
