We argue that the policy discourse on EE reformulates the idea of being academically educated. In the context of build…

Simultaneously, lifelong learning has been developed as the defining concept of EU education policy to increase social cohesion and economic competitiveness. However, the education, employment rate and socioeconomic status of disabled pers…
