EAEA and Forma.Azione sign a Memorandum of Understanding

EAEA and Forma.Azione have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).

In July 2025, EAEA and Forma.Azione have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), formalising a long-standing collaboration in the fields of Adult Learning and Education (ALE) and Vocational Education and Training (VET). The agreement marks a shared commitment to continue working together on joint initiatives, sharing knowledge and expertise, and developing common policy positions that support inclusive, high-quality learning opportunities for adults across Europe.

The partnership builds on years of fruitful cooperation between the two organisations in EU-funded projects, advocacy, and peer learning. By formalising this relationship, EAEA and Forma.Azione aims to strengthen their impact, coordinate efforts more strategically, and contribute more effectively to shaping European education and training policies.

Adult Learning for a Changing World

To strengthen adult education worldwide and reinforce commitment to advancing adult learning and education (ALE), while recognising both its challenges and its important role in society, 142 UNESCO Member States adopted the Marrakech Framework for Action (MFA) in June 2022. Four years on from the adoption of the 2022 MFA, we now identify three central issues that EAEA believes deserve more attention: basic skills education, the digitalisation of work and global responsibility.
