Summary
Liberal adult education (folkbildning), which has a long history in Swedish social life, is provided by folk high schools (folkhögskolor) and adult education associations studieförbund). The hallmark of Liberal adult education is that it is `free and voluntary´, i.e. free from central government control and voluntary for its participants.
