The LENA project partners from Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Slovenia and the UK have worked together on developing a new way of creating learning opportunities for older adults.

Taking as a starting point the shift away from teacher-centred towards learner-centred education the team has developed a pan-European approach to creating learning that engages older people at each stage of the process. The partners have focused particularly on the needs of older people who may suffer disadvantage of one kind or another.

The products are based on two years of work by the LENA project team.

LENA project material consists of two components. One is a handbook and the other is a CD with resources.
