Résumé : | This anthology brings together basic facts and features about basic learning needs and skills of people working and living in the informal economy and presents case studies from different countries examining educational and training strategies for meeting these learning needs. The aim of this volume is to provide accounts of learning and training programmes in the informal sector that range over the vast territory of educational activity and give young people and adults an opportunity to gain the knowledge and develop the values, attitudes and skills which will enable them to improve their capacities to work, participate fully in their societies, take control of their own lives and continue learning. The programmes are significant in that they attempt to integrate education and training. Special emphasis is placed on the participation of all stakeholders, especially civil society organisations and social movements. The publication portrays the grave problems facing educational and training systems vis-á-vis informal sector workers, even as they look at holistic solutions that take into account principles of lifelong learning and innovations in informal, non-formal and formal adult learning, and show a growing awareness that education is a human right of fundamental significance to promoting decent work and human living conditions. The size, diversity, and the strength and sheer tenacity of workers and owners in the informal sector as well as the stress on globalisation and technological changes have combined to bring about a reappraisal of the links between education and training and the informal labour market. |
