On 13 November 2024, EARLALL hosted the Validation Seminar for SMALEI Policy Recommendations in Barcelona and online, gathering over 30 participants, including policymakers and political representatives from across Europe. The session was facilitated by Alicia Gaban (EARLALL Secretariat) and Andrea Bernert-Bürkle (VHS Baden-Württemberg), marking a pivotal moment in the journey toward more sustainable practices in Adult Learning and Education (ALE) institutions.

The event was structured into two key segments:

  1. Introduction to SMALEI Goals: Participants were introduced to SMALEI’s mission of integrating sustainability into ALE institutions. Andrea Bernert-Bürkle encouraged attendees to leverage the project’s resources to further these goals.
  2. Validation of Policy Recommendations: A set of draft recommendations, developed by the SMALEI team led by TKNIKA (Basque Country), was presented for participant feedback. Using an online voting system, attendees evaluated and refined strategies across six strategic areas.

The final policy recommendations will be published really soon at SMALEI website.
