The International Council for Adult Education (ICAE) together with CSO colleagues who are members of the CONFINTEA VII Consultative Committee – DVV International, ASPBAE and representatives of academia, have been actively contributing to the drafting of the Preliminary Marrakech Framework for Action (MFA). ICAE are pleased to note that a significant number of their initial comments have been incorporated into this preliminary draft. However, ICAE recognises that there are a few more key issues in the new draft that the ICAE and key colleagues would continue to advocate for.
