How can educational research inform policy-making?

The Lifelong Learning Platform participated in a mobility learning activity at CICERO Learning Network and its coordination unit. Andrew Todd, Policy and Advocacy Officer at the LLLPlatform visited CICERO Learning to see how educational research can inform policy-making.

The Lifelong Learning Platform is an umbrella that gathers more than 40 European organisations active in the field of education, training and youth. Currently these networks represent more than 50 000 educational institutions and associations covering all sectors of formal, non-formal and informal learning. Their members reach out to several millions of beneficiaries.
