LLL programme specification
The University of the Third Age (U3A) is a form of lifelong learning. It enables older people obtaining university-level education encouraging personal development.
U3A supports active lifestyle of the elderly, mediates the latest findings, knowledge and skills in a suitable form, fosters mental and physical vigour and independence of older people, stimulates their interest in current events, practical use of gained knowledge and active life attitudes.
U3A organizes various educational events for the elderly, ranging from traditional forms of education (long-term and short-term courses, special lectures, field trips, open-air art workshops) to activation programmes focussed, for instance, on a healthy lifestyle or diverse animation activities specifically designed for old-age pensioners.
