The main objective of the project was to encourage the transformation of adult education environment in a direction that more comprehensively supports the well-being of adults. We started from the belief that education and well-being are interrelated—learning is more effective when it takes place in a stimulating, inclusive, and emotionally safe space that enables the development of personal and social skills. Therefore, we developed a methodology that strengthens the sense of belonging, promotes positive emotions, safe interactios, and enables personal growth and self-development for adults. We have focused particularly on vulnerable target groups who often face isolation, low self-esteem, and motivational problems. The aim of the project was to encourage their participation and persistence in education and social life in general. By developing a competency framework, an escape room, a booklet of good practices, and a digital e-platform, we wanted to offer concrete, modern, and user-friendly tools for implementing programs that systematically incorporate care for happiness and well-being. In this way, we have contributed to the development of advanced learning environments and the improvement of the quality of adult education.
