The method of selecting journals performed through manual selection by selecting journals related to the theme of lifelong learning and has empirical data for information related to the topic. From the findings, 25 articles found to critically elaborate on the concepts of lifelong learning, the importance of lifelong learning, issues and problems and the implications for future education.
