Abstract

In the fifteen years since the National Adult Literacy Agency (NALA) was founded many important advancements have taken place in the Irish context - not the least of them being the constructive partnership that has evolved with the Department of Education and other state agencies. The need to maintain and cherish the ethos of student centred learning through voluntary non-professional commitment and initiative is, however, a concern for the future.
