- Summary
- The outcomes of a special Eurobarometer survey, carried out in spring 2005, provided for the first time an insight into attitudes and opinions of citizens in the new member states towards lifelong learning. This report provides a detailed analysis of this survey. Taking into account the results of an analogous survey in the EU-15 in 2003, the authors describe major differences or possibly coherences in the perceptions, needs, motivations and preferences of citizens in the new and old member states. The results of the 2005 Eurobarometer survey on lifelong learning show that new member states' citizens are highly conscious about the importance of learning a lifetime, for both economic and social reasons. Results provide evidence that EU policies on lifelong learning gained a foothold in the new member states. However, details of the analysis reveal the potential for further targeted policy intervention and measures.--Publisher's description.
