DVV International has worked closely with the Ministry of Education and other government bodies in promoting adult education in Ethiopia for more than two decades. Working together, innovative methodologies for the delivery of adult learning and education have been introduced within the framework of the Functional Adult Literacy Programme. As part of this cooperation, DVV International has supported the establishment of Community Learning Centres (CLCs), working in partnership with the Regional Education Bureaus. This booklet has been produced to highlight the key steps in establishing and managing CLCs, including the foundational and operational phases and major outcomes. it also shares some of the lessons learned from the implementation experience, as well as success stories and reflections of stakeholders.
