DVV International supported research on the development of ALE (Adult Learning and Education) in the Central Asian Countries of Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan in 2020 during the time of the COVID 19 pandemic. National consultants in each of the three countries cooperated with a team of international experts, and they all worked along a common outline which was prepared as part of the project development. In addition to the country studies a comparative synthesis review was prepared also. Full versions of the country and the regional reports are available from DVV international.

I would like to draw your attention to a two-day prison education webinar being offered by the University of Guadalajara on 22 September 2021 at 1700 (CDMX)(GMT -5) with some of the best prison education professors and investigators in Latin America.

In this edition of the L&W Newsletter, you should note in particular the call for papers regarding: the Nordic conference on adult education and learning in Vestfold and the International congress on research in VET in Bern (see Conferences), the TAKE 2022 conference in Porto (Programmes and Projects), the JVET special issue on TVET race and ethnicity and the ERVET thematic issues on Exploring resilience in VET and Promoting financial literacy in VET (see Publications). Also, save the date for the G.R.E.A.T. Conference 2022 (see Conferences). And don't overlook the Vacancy announcement for adult education at FSU Jena (see Networks and Organisations)!
