She also started her career at the Folkuniversitetet but later on became a teacher at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.umu.se\">University of Umea<\/a> in the very north of Sweden. She talks about how the field of adult education has changed in all those years, and why she won\u2019t move back to England after her retirement this summer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely on fire<\/strong><br \/>\nNow, imagine you have just started a new job in a foreign country somewhere in Europe, let\u2019s say Lithuania. At work you mainly speak English, and you haven\u2019t really mastered the Lithuanian language yet. One night you wake up and discover that your house is on fire. You rush to the telephone, dial the emergency number 112 and suddenly realize that the operator at the other end might not understand you. This is where Dieter N\u00fcssler and his wife Helga come in. They have won the European Language Label for the project <a href=\"http:\/\/www.multicom112.org\">Multicom112<\/a>, which tackles exactly that problem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely lifelong<\/strong><br \/>\nAnd last but not least we are proud to present a new column \u201cabsolutely lifelong\u201d where we will share good ideas to organise your own life long learning.
