Abstract
PCF4 // The tragedy of Adult Education is that the majority of Zambians confine it to the narrow premise of functional literacy and attendance of academic evening classes at various centre of continuing education. Worse still, the government, knowingly and unknowingly, allocates a tiny fraction of its budget to continuing education. The poor funding of open learning has made adult education to wallow in the muddy waters of stagnation and deprivation. Many non-government organizations (NGOs) are also oblivious of the fact that they are conveyors and purveyors of adult education. Adult education is embracive of Environmental Education, Peace Education, Civic Education, Development Studies, Social Work, Project Planning, Human Resource Development and Training. // Paper ID 428
