This article presents an analysis of Youth and Adult Education, based on Federal Government measures for this type of education in the context of the first decade of the twenty-first century. The study focuses on dialogue with the proposed action initially aimed at promoting literacy, especially the Brazil Literate Program, and moves on to the education of youth and adult workers, with particular emphasis on PROEJA at the Instituto Federal de Goiás in Goiânia. The analysis of these actions and programs would indicate that there has been a broadening of the scope of proposals for the education of young people and adults. It is no longer restricted or focused only on literacy, but tends to bring basic and vocational education closer together. However, the initiatives have not yet become public policies involving people on a large scale, nor have they been any way influential in trying to get rid of a very commonly held view that young people and adults have little need of education. This reveals the country’s lack of awareness of the importance of the right of all to culture and education.Downloads
