Article scientifique 2023 Anglais

Résumé

One of the most essential pillars of community development is education. A community with access to quality education can advance academically, economically, and socially. In this sense, adult education among learners is crucial to meet this requirement of improving the community's well-being. This paper investigated the role of adult education in socioeconomic change among graduates. The participants involved graduate students from the Institute of Adult Education. Data were collected through interviews. The results show that adult education improved self-employability among graduates, adult education improved the standard of living, adult education improved production capacities, adult education enabled graduates to get basic needs, and adult education helped to discard bad cultural practices in society. Therefore, this study recommends that to ensure socioeconomic transformation, efforts must be made to raise awareness or consciousness for students to enroll in such classes.
