Abstract:

The conceptual frames informing current lifelong learning policy at European Union (EU) and national level shape the way that people in key marginalised sectors in the Republic of Ireland: Travellers, other ethnic minorities, and people with disabilities, are provided for. Examination of the experiences of these groups suggests the following questions: whose choices, whose needs, and whose ambitions shape the voyage?
