The program also aims to contribute to the achievement of quality education and lifelong learning for all, and to the enhancement and strengthening of non-formal education and alternative learning system (ALS), vocational education and training, and open education and technology-supported learning. It will also cover global issues, such as peace, social justice, human rights, and sustainable development, which will help promote national and international understanding and cooperation.
