Continuation and extension of literacy programs: From literacy to adult basic education and beyond in Uganda

This paper explores the extent to which the varied literacy provisions in Uganda are offering a holistic lifelong learning perspective examining (i) the program structure and its link to continuing education, (ii) the current methodology and its contribution to empowerment for lifelong learning, (iii) skills development for work and life and (iv) the impact of literacy. It concludes that adult literacy programs in Uganda, although quite effective at the basic level, have very inadequate provision for adult continuing and lifelong education and have practically no links with the formal education
