• Since end of the 80s, dvv international has worked alongside their partners in the [European] transformation countries in Adult Education and the difficult adjustment to new the conditions. ... Today the situation in the former socialist countries is very differentiated. In the meantime, many of them have become members of the European Union. In these countries, Adult Education and Lifelong Learning plays a central role, as the recent statements by the Commission prove. ... Outside the European Union, the situation is still far more critical. Despite all efforts, most governments still don't comprehend the meaning of Lifelong Learning for a social, innovative and balanced development of their countries. ... this short review makes clear, the countries of this region have handled transitional training in very different ways in the last decade, due mostly to different historical, cultural, political, economic and social conditions. If the previous western view of the so-called monolithic "Eastern Bloc" was false, then today the region presents itself so diversely that it is practically impossible to have a comprehensive overview. Nevertheless, there are perhaps some lines of development which can be pointed out which will effect vocational further training one way or another in the coming years. (DIPF/Orig.).
