The Lifelong Learning Platform – European Civil Society for Education (LLLP) was created in 2005 and gathers today 43 European networks working in education, training and youth. These organisations represent millions of actors across Europe and cover all sectors of education and training including networks for secondary and higher education, VET, adult education and popular education; networks for students, school heads, parents, human resource professionals, teachers and trainers. LLLP was acknowledged by the European Commission in 2009 as an “unique representation” of lifelong learning of the various education and training actors organised at EU level.
LLLP’s role in the project
In STRIDE, LLLP is responsible for enhancing the scientific and societal impact of the project. LLLP designed a communication and impact strategy and uses its large network of key stakeholders to ensure that the learning from the project are communicated to policy-makers either operating at European, national, regional or local levels.
Part of its role consists in setting up collaborative frameworks with other “relative projects” building synergy and mutual impact. LLLP is also responsible for producing policy publications, notably a Policy brief on equity, equality and inclusion in educational policies in Europe. At the end of 2026 LLLP will organise the final conference in Brussels.
