ICAE has been running virtual seminars for several years on topics in Adult Education and development. With more than 1000 participants from all regions of the world, the last ICAE Virtual Seminar (held from 17 June to 10 July 2013) dis cussed the Post 2015 education agenda: advocacy actions. The exchange included a thorough joint reflection on the preparation process of the post 2015 Development Agenda. Two aspects deserved special attention. On the one hand, the place and role of lifelong education were debated. On the other hand, the Virtual Seminar asked what the partici pation of civil society means and what advocacy power the organisations that defend education as a fundamental hu man right are actually having. The debate was well informed and rich in content thanks to the valuable contributions, comments and proposals received. As a result, the seminar shed some light on a process that is neither simple nor easy to follow. The intention was to facilitate and promote advo cacy actions necessary for Lifelong Learning and education to obtain the priority they deserve. In addition, the seminar aimed at maintaining the focus on human rights and to counteract instrumentalist and reductionist views of de velopment.
