It is crucial to prepare actively for the latter part of life and for retirement, so as to make the most and best use of the possibilities that may lie ahead. The BALL-project (Be Active through Lifelong Learning), supported by the European Union’s Erasmus+ programme, was defined and carried out to investigate how best to plan and implement such preparations. The ideas included in this book or guidelines are results of extensive research, survey and development work carried out within the three participating countries, Iceland, Poland, and Spain, with a view to Europe as a whole.
