Background and Aim: The Folk High School is one of the formal adult education systems that have attracted groups of senior citizens who traditionally have not participated in educational activities. Method: Focus group interviews with 33 participants were conducted at eight different Folk High Schools in southern Sweden.Results: The participants experience this as meaningful, and as something which impacts on their quality of life in a positive manner. Furthermore, it plays an important function in the participants’ continued life-long learning.Discussion and implications: The presentation focuses on the role the courses that are offered play in the participants’ lives with respect to meaningfulness, their well-being, and life-long learning. The interaction at the courses gives rise to an unpretentious- and, in a broad sense, an intercultural learning experience.
