Non-Formal Adult Learning and Community Education Strategy (NALCES)

Please find below the Uganda Non-Formal Adult Learning and Community Education Strategy (NALCES) for the period 2023/24-2027/28.
This comprehensive strategy aims to revolutionise adult education in Uganda, providing a robust framework to foster lifelong learning and inclusive community development. Designed through a collaborative and participatory process, NALCES addresses critical gaps and challenges identified in previous adult education initiatives. It emphasises the creation of a qualitative learning system that empowers both youth and adults, ensuring that every learner has access to sustainable and equitable educational opportunities.
Some key objectives of NALCES include:
- Developing inclusive and high-quality NALCE programmes
- Establishing flexible learning pathways through an assessment and accreditation framework
- Strengthening governance and coordination for effective service delivery
- Promoting evidence-based policy formulation and implementation
- Building the capacity of stakeholders at all levels for effective lifelong learning, and
- Operationalising a comprehensive monitoring and evaluation system.
The strategy outlines several interventions to achieve these goals, such as establishing learning spaces, providing inclusive learning materials, enhancing the quality of education programmes, and fostering strategic partnerships. By addressing these areas, NALCES seeks to create a transformative impact on adult education in Uganda, making lifelong learning accessible and beneficial for all.
