Informal learning which continually takes place at work, during leisure activities, in the area of regional development, during voluntary social interaction, etc, has special relevance for sustainable development.

The Working Group on Informal Learning tries to substantiate the occurrence of learning in these fields of activity as part of the UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development.

In the area of informal learning we can find potential possibilities for enhancing the debate about sustainable development. By understanding these possibilities, we should be able to develop a framework taking into consideration personal attitudes and competencies, so that informal learning can be optimised.
