Abstract

Obrazovne politike su oblast za koju se može reći da ima esencijalnu važnost u uspostavljanju i funkcionisanju sistema obrazovanja odraslih. Sve zemlje regiona ulažu dosta napora u pravcu oživljavanja i daljeg unapređivanja obrazovanja odraslih, a upravo na osnovu politika obrazovanja možemo utvrditi pravce razvoja sistema, kao i načine na koje nameravaju dostići postavljene ciljeve. U radu smo se bavili utvđivanjem, poređenjem i kritičkom analizom elemenata i pravaca razvoja politika obrazovanja odraslih u zemljama regiona. Rezultati analize i komparacije su ukazali na brojne sličnosti, ali i na razlike u politikama obrazovanja odraslih u regionu. U nameri da identifikujemo snage na kojima počivaju uspostavljeni sistemi obrazovanja odraslih, slabosti koje treba prevazići, šanse za dalji razvoj sistema i pretnje koje se nalaze u okruženju, u formi zaključka je urađena SWOT analiza obrazovanja odraslih u regionu. Analizom smo došli do saznanja da zemlje u regionu vode u načelu dosta slične politike obrazovanja odraslih, sa određenim osobenostima vezanim za specifičnu situaciju u kojoj se konkretna zemlja trenutno nalazi. Za obrazovanje odraslih u regionu „ima nade” ako zemlje međusobno sarađuju, uvažavajući primere dobre prakse na prevazilaženju sopstvenih slabosti, korišćenju šansi i prevazilaženju pretnji.

Educational policy is an area which has an essential importance in the establishment and functioning of the adult education system. All countries of the region are investing great efforts in the revival and further improvement of adult education. When analyzing education policy, we can determine the directions of the system development, as well as the ways in which they intend to achieve the set goals. In this paper we dealt with identifying, comparison and critical analysis of the elements of adult education policy and directions of its development in the region. The results of analysis and comparisons pointed to a number of similarities and differences in adult education policies in the region. In order to identify the forces which had established systems of adult education, and overcome weaknesses, to use opportunities for further development of systems and avoid threats that are found in the environment, we formulated a conclusion in the form of a SWOT analysis of adult education in the region. After analysis, we found that countries in the region have generally, similar adult education policies with certain characteristics related to the specific situation of the particular country. There is a hope for adult education in the region, if countries work together, recognizing examples of good practice, overcoming their own weaknesses, using opportunities and avoiding threats.
