Verpufftes Feuerwerk an Ideen? Was wird aus den Vorschlägen der Expertenkommission Finanzierung Lebenslangen Lernens?

In the present contribution the final report of the Expert Commission on Financing Lifelong Learning is compared to a firework: it has provoked a short-term enthusiasm and attention. What is there to do in order not to let the ideas deflagrate but conserve chances for their implementation? The author asks the actors of further education to help oneself offensively with the arguments of the report (”public interest”, ”more investments necessary”, ”increase sovereignty demand”) and to advertise to the broad population for more educational investments and the benefits of education. Because from neither companies nor from politicians one can presently expect that they would introduce the theme actively into the discourse.
