Abstract:
This research aims to investigate the impact of adult education on reducing income inequality and promoting social mobility. Income inequality has become a pressing issue in many societies, leading to disparities in opportunities and outcomes. Adult education programs have been recognized as potential tools for addressing this issue by equipping individuals with the necessary skills and knowledge to improve their economic prospects. This study will examine the various dimensions of adult education, including formal and informal learning, vocational training, and lifelong learning initiatives. By analyzing existing literature, conducting surveys, and interviewing participants, this research seeks to provide insights into the effectiveness of adult education in reducing income inequality and promoting social mobility. The findings of this study will contribute to the ongoing discourse on educational policies and strategies aimed at creating more equitable societies.
