Resumo:Non-formal education has been presented as a powerful tool in promoting successful aging. This study aims to explore whether non-formal education effectively contributes to successful aging and identify the dimensions that contribute most to promoting this process.

The results indicate that, in the participants’ perception, the experience was very positive, highlighting the most impactful benefits as an increase in positive emotions and subjective well-being, revitalization of social interaction and optimization of free time, satisfaction in learning, and the positive impact of learning on everyday life.
