The 5th Adult Education and Development Conference (AEDC) organized by DVV International with support of its partners, held on 11-12 October, 2017, dealt with policies, roles, functions, governance, impact and benefits of adult education and community learning centres as important institutions and structures to foster local development. Here is a report and key messages arising from the conference:
