The FACE 2008 conference focuses on "Challenging isolation through lifelong learning" policies and practices. To facilitate maximum opportunities to share evidence, ideas and experiences relating to the conference theme, there are two types of workshop/paper sessions: themed papers and workshop sessions. Papers will be grouped according to indicative broad themes. These are: Mental Health and Lifelong Learning, Rural and Coastal Areas/Regions, Care leavers, Work-Based Learning, Hard to Reach Groups. These are genuinely indicative themes only. As is routine with the FACE Annual Conference, there will be a book published of selected conference papers.
