10 lines of action form the strategy that covers every phase of life – from early childhood education to learning after reti­re­ment – in every area of life. The progress in the imple­men­ta­ti­on of the Strategy is revealed by moni­to­ring on a yearly basis.

3s conducts this moni­to­ring for the years 2016 and 2017 and also prepares an overview of the progress of LLL:2020 achieved by the end of 2018. For the remaining programme period, recom­men­da­ti­ons are also developed regarding which imple­men­ta­ti­on projects need to be given special priority. Furthermore, important con­clu­si­ons are presented for a potential successor strategy and discussed with the inter-mini­ste­ri­al Task Force LLL:2020.
