Universidade dos Tempos Livres (UTL) - Vila Real de Santo António, Portugal
www.cm-vrsa.ptThe Universidade dos Tempos Livres - UTL (University of Leisure Time) is an institution dependent on the city council, who offers general non-formal education for adults involved on the popular development, counting with almost 1.200 learners and 70 teachers.
Since 2002, its official opening, our main goal is to promote a healthier lifestyle and quality of life on our target population: adults and senior. As the great challenges of 21st century are, precisely, dependent on the formation of its citizens, we should act, thinking in our own local dimension as a platform of citizenship, promoting a pacific coexistence thanks to formation in ethic and civic values, on the respect for plurality, increasing representative and participative mechanisms of quality.
So, our institute should promote a pacific coexistence; foment a formation in ethic, civic and healthy values; practice the respect of plurality; increase participative mechanisms of quality and, since diversity is inherent in our city, it’s urgent to
promote harmony and balance between identity and diversity, preserving community’s contributes and the right that all of them have to be recognized from its cultural identity.
In this context and in order to facilitate access to formation in different levels – personal, social and professional – our classes are distributed among 5 different delegations of UTL spread by the county. With this decentralized measure, we can reach more people and decrease the tendency to social isolation, a fact measurable by the growing acceptance and adherence to classes.
The need to diversify our offer, it is justified in the follow of an educational model appropriate to adult that, in one hand, seeks occupy leisure time and find a formation according to their objectives and needs, promoting an active citizenship. So, currently, we’re offering 39 different classes, grouped in departments: Technologies (TIC), Arts and Crafts (painting, embroidery, decorative arts, etc.), Physical Education (including yoga and different types of dance), Music (where is teached guitar, drums or piano) and Languages and Sciences (covering different languages, local history, citizenship and the modern world, nutrition and dietetics, etc.).
Though student population is becoming more heterogeneous, covering more age groups, we continue to observe that we’re most wanted after retirement – in order to occupy those free times that, suddenly, appear.
