To be happy in life we need to keep expanding and learning. Knowing how to adapt lifelong learning into our life can raise our quality of life and bring a more conscious approach to studies and living. So, what does lifelong learning really mean and why is it such a popular term in the nowadays educational field? We have invited two guests, Piret Jeedas and Triin Roosalu to join us in the studio and share their thoughts on lifelong learning.
