As part of the commemoration, UNESCO published the 3rd Global Report On Adult Learning and Education. It is subtitled "The Impact of Adult Learning and Education on health and Well-Being; Employment and the Labour Market; and Social, Civic and Community Life" and chapters discuss the evidence for these links, reporting on a monitoring survey to which 139 countries responded. The report can be downloaded at http://www.unesco.org/new/en/media-services/single-view/news/global_report_on_adult_learning_and_education_calls_on_count/
