Folkbildning /Liberal Adult Education / in Sweden
• Swedish folkbildning is the collective name for the activities conducted by the country’s folk high schools and study associations in the form of courses, study circles and cultural activities.
• Folkbildning is a part of the liberal non-formal educational system.
Liberal Adult Education concept
• Voluntary
• Participants influence the content
• Learning and social interaction go hand in
hand
• Contributes to strengthening of civic society
through close cooperation with volunteer
organisations, NGOs
Study circles
The study circle is the most important form of study in the study associations. In the study circle, a small group meets to learn together based on a plan of study and with a study circle leader.
There are study circles in hundreds of different subjects. Some have a more theoretical emphasis, such as language, history and studies in current social issues.
Others are more practically oriented, such as dance, woodworking, instrumental music and so forth.
