학습권 보장을 위한 평생교육바우처 지원정책 분석

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the main elements of the lifelong education voucher, a key initiative for realizing the right to learning and to propose recommendations for the effective establishment of such programs. It involves an in-depth examination of the evolving discourse on learning rights, the definition of responsibilities to uphold these rights, and an evaluation of related policies. The research focuses on the role of vouchers in supporting learning costs and their impact on ensuring equitable learning opportunities. While vouchers enhance learning participation across diverse socio-economic groups, the study identifies areas for improvement, such as increasing transparency, managing educational quality, and promoting learner autonomy. Recommendations include implementing learning counseling, establishing robust quality-management systems, and empowering learners self-directedness. The study also suggests researching outcomes considering the policy orientation of the voucher for evaluating policy implementation results and stable financing.
