The Adult Education and Community Intervention Research Centre (CEAD) is the first R&D Unit in Portugal to be dedicated exclusively to this area of knowledge. The CEAD's mission is to promote and carry out research activities in adult education and community intervention, in order to build and disseminate scientific knowledge of educational and social usefulness, as well as to support planning and decision-making processes covered by such themes. In view of the reduced volume of research in adult education in Portugal, and the lack of systematisation of available information, we want to build a centre that is flexible and open to researchers from all over Portugal who are interested in cooperating to support of this mission.
