The basic concept of lifelong learning is that the very foundation of human transformation is learning and it is the basic tenet of our ancestor "home sapiens". They learnt throughout their lives and endowed their generation with such trait of learning. That is why the world today is in such a stage of science and technology. This techno-society needs more learning opportunities and commitments than ever before. The life of modern Homo sapiens have become more and more challenging. To face these we need to be a lifelong learner and it is possible only when our society turns into a learning society.
Are all people ready to be lifelong learners? Are all societies ready to be learning societies? The answer may be yes. But it is a bitter fact that all of them do not have basic prerequisites to be lifelong learner and make their society a learning society. It is always believed that education is the fundamental rights of every individual, moreover, to achieve all other human rights people must have education and education comes through learning and the learning is and shouldn’t be limited to formal learning. From the inception of UNESCO it has recognized that education should be neither the privilege of an elite nor a matter for one age group only, rather it should be both universal and lifelong (Young & Valdes-Cotera, 2011) .
Despite the fact that every individual, every society and every country want to pursue a best economic prosperity and provide a best condition to learn to its citizen, there is a great disparity in several factors including the learning condition. UNESCO’s Medium Term Strategy (2008-2013) contends that development and economic prosperity depends on countries ability to educate all their citizens (Young & Valdes-Cotera, 2011) . Hence the economic prosperity of every developing country depends on the learning environment it provides to its citizen irrespective of age, time and places to learn.
Some of the countries have developed a strong mechanism for creating good learning conditions. For example Canadians have made important contributions to early formulations concerning lifelong learning education and are today committed to fostering democratic forms of learning in a broad array of informal, non-formal and formal settings (Young & Valdes-Cotera, 2011) .
