Abstract

The authors, who co-chaired the International Seminar on Research in Adult Education held in Montreal in September 1994, present a synthesis of the five major themes that were discussed: definitions and restructuring of the reality of organized adult learning, the organization of research, research themes and approaches, the agenda for the future considering the trends and the needs that were identified, and finally, international cooperation in research and the conditions for constructive cooperation. In the concluding paragraphs, the authors emphasize the wish of the participants that an invisible community of researchers be created and work in a spirit of goodwill and democratic intellectual cooperation.
