Head of the Department of International Economic Relations, Prof. Yuriy Petrushenko, as a practitioner who heads the Adult Education Center in Sumy, was invited to participate in the International Academy of Adult Education, which took place from February 5 to 16, 2024, in Würzburg, Germany.
Since 2014, the Adult Education Academy (AEA) has taken place at the University of Würzburg in Bavaria, Germany, in the first two weeks of February. The AEA promotes international networks in adult education and lifelong learning, aiming to foster a connection between academic learning and the field of adult education.
During the intensive programme of two weeks, analytical and comparative skills in adult education are being trained in an international environment. An understanding of internationally relevant educational policies in the context of lifelong learning is provided. At the same time, communication, team-building skills, and critical thinking are strengthened by working together in this international setting.
