Non-formal adult education is dynamically developing in different forms. The article represents them in the example of Ukraine. Non-formal education was acknowledged only in 2017 in the Law of Ukraine “On Education”, though it had been provided in several forms before. Currently, the most popular form of non-formal adult education in Ukraine is the Centers for Adult Education. They are created on the initiative of public organizations in partnership with foreign adult education organizations, in particular DVV International. To analyze their profiles there were identified several criteria: relation to formal or nonformal education, initiators and organizers, target audience, providers of methodical and financial assistance, thematic directions of their activity. As a result of the analysis according to the identified criteria, the information from Internet resources on the activity of adult educational centres was systemized; their similar and different features in their organization form were distinguished and defined their models: university- and college-based, school-based; museum and library-based. In addition, the directions for the further scientific research in this field were outlined.

This chapter briefly describes the challenges faced by the Nigerian education system as from 1983 after it had performed well between 1960 and 1980. It follows this description with the discussion of the innovative and ingenious educational devise that kept about one third of the number of school age children and youths in school between 1990 and the early part of the 21st century. That innovative educational sub-system was known as non-formal education for the Girl-Child, the out-of-school boy and Quranic school learners and it was developed, nurtured and implemented by academic personnel drawn from the eight existing university departments of adult education in Nigeria at the time. The chapter finally discusses how these departments of adult education worked for the establishment of national structures of adult education which ultimately came to promote both the visibility and popularisation of the modern practice of adult education in Nigeria from the 1980s.
