EPALE what´s on 2019
National Agencies for EPALE are called NSSs. Introduce us.
Nordic meeting now in Iceland because of the Icelandic Presidency in the Nordic Council
Regular meetings, usually 2 x per year These are a few of our favorite things – main topics for meetings
Thematic focuses LESA very much in line with the NVL focuses. You can see, each theme is for 2 or 3 months.The Commission wanted to take into account one of the recommendations from the external EPALE evaluation about having thematic focuses that last longer than 1 month. This allows the community to delve deeper into each topic and explore it in more detail. The users appreciate this.
Our online event for Q1 will have a different format to the traditional discussions we've organised before. We invite users to share good practice examples, case studies and information about successful projects related to the monthly theme
