POSILLIPO aims to better understand Lifelong Learning partnerships in Europe and the role of the stakeholders in the definition, design, implementation and evaluation of policies and initiatives in the field of LLL.

Thus, it focuses on the identification, analysis and follow-up of the different policies and stakeholders between all levels of public authorities, social partners, NGOs, education and training institutions, enterprises, cultural establishments and research organisations making special emphasis in settings that promote informal learning for adults and their role in lifelong learning.

This process will promote the creation of stable flows of information, communication and learning among policy makers, researchers and practitioners through the creation of a Virtual Collaborative Learning Network that will test how to maximise the positive impact of stakeholders in relation to LLL policies.

The project outcomes include a comparative analysis of LLL partnerships, initiatives and policies in the countries involved, the definition of a successful partnership model and the creation and running of a Virtual Community of Experts.

POSILLIPO is a Grundtvig 1 project that lasts 24 months: from October 1st, 2005 to October 1st 2007.
