2010 Diary week 24
Participation in workshop “50+ adaptation to a life change”
From 31st May to 6th June Christine and I participated in a Grundtvig Seminar/Workshop “50+ adaptation to a life change”. The workshop was an EU sponsored Lifelong Learning Programme organised by Kolping College and took place in Troškūnai, Lithuania. David presented a paper “The Impact of Lifelong Learning on My Life” which is posted this week.
The talk is based on information in the following books which will be reviewed in the coming weeks.
