Nedan vidarebefordras information om tre internationella konferenser av relevans för folkbildningsforskare:
The 6th International Conference of the Popular Education Network (PEN), 24- 26th April 2014, University of Malta Valletta Campus, Malta.

The 6th International Conference of the Popular Education Network (PEN)
The next conference of the international popular education network will be in Malta Thursday 24 - Saturday 26 April 2014, University of Malta Valletta Campus. This conference seeks to build on the success of previous PEN conferences held in Edinburgh (2000), Barcelona (2002), Braga (2004), Maynooth (2007) and Seville (2011). The conference is an opportunity for university-based teachers and researchers, student-activists and others involved in higher education, who share a common interest in popular education - many of whom work in considerable isolation in their own institutions - to meet, exchange ideas, learn from each other and enjoy some much needed solidarity and conviviality.
The language of the conference will be English.

“Adult Education and the Planetary Condition” - Sixth Nordic Conference of Adult Education and Learning 26.-27.3.2015
Venue: School of Education, University of Tampere, Finland
Organizers: Universities of Tampere and Åbo Akademi, Research Programme Freedom and Responsibility of Popular Adult Education
Contact persons: Anja Heikkinen, anja.heikkinen at uta.fi, Annika Turunen, Annika.turunen at abo.fi
Both the theory and practice of adult education have developed much as a response to societal and economical change in a nation-state context. Currently researchers, practitioners and policy-makers of adult education are witnessing consequences of globalization, not only as increased interaction and mobility across different kinds of borders, but also as financial and economical, social and environmental crises at a global scale. The local challenges of adulthood are increasingly also planetary. The loose umbrella of the sixth biannual Nordic conference of adult education and learning is the place and function of adult education in a planetary perspective. It invites researchers to discuss their topics and results in the tension-field of local and global. Contributions relating adult education to social, economical, ecological and cultural issues are especially welcome, but the conference is open to all interested in encounters and dialogues within the Nordic adult education community.
More information about the program, call for papers and conference practicalities will follow soon and will be available on the conference website http://www.peda.net/veraja/vsy/nordic2015/
