LOWEs are local educational centers supporting adults in developing key competences in order to improve their situation in the labour market. LOWEs offer various forms of non-formal and informal learning for adults using the potential of the schools in which they operate. The first centers were developed at schools in 2017-2018 within the framework of projects co-financed by the European Social Fund.
