| Adult
Learning Documentation and Information Network (ALADIN)
Members of
the adult education community, wherever they are and whatever they do,
have been confronted with lack of information and resources in their work.
This is why the Documentation Centre of the UNESCO Institute for Education
co-ordinates ALADIN, a network of so far 90 adult learning documentation
and information services in all regions of the world. ALADIN, which has
as its objective to counteract the imbalance in access to adult learning
documentation and information, is committed to incorporate in its network
those services who are not yet online. It is a fundamental principle of
ALADIN that the exchange of information through the WWW cannot completely
replace the more traditional exchange of media. While working to create
and strengthen the technological capacity of its members, the network promotes
the integration of new technologies with traditional means of communication.
Only 20% of ALADIN members so far have data bases accessible via this homepage.
Information available in all the other ALADIN bases should also be consulted
therefore.
