For the first time, the many innovative adult education institutions, that have arisen all over Europe in recent years, will come together for a collaborative
festival. They all investigate in different ways how lifelong learning can contribute to a sustainable and joyful world. In the beautiful environment of Järna near Stockholm they will connect, collaborate and celebrate for a week.

They have been invited by the International Partnership for Transformative Learning (IPTL), which emerged from an EU-funded partnership. (Here's an article about the learning partnership in the OYA.)
The IPTL is also publishing the book "Hosting Transformation - Stories from the edge of change making", which will be presented at the festival for the first time to the public.
