Exploring ‘resilience’ and climate justice: challenges for ALE
24 mai 2021 — 25 mai 2021, 08:00 - 09:30 | Johannesburg
Webinar
In these times of extreme precarity, a new buzzword is ‘resilience’. In combination with adjectives resilience means many different things to different constituencies across the natural and social sciences, ranging from absorptive to adaptive; restorative to transformative resilience. This webinar explores different interpretations of resilience and outlines a variety of resilience capacities in the context of climate justice. We pose the questions: how do we as adult educators understand and utilise the concept of ‘resilience’? What understandings of `resilience’ are most useful and generative in the collective struggles towards climate justice?

14 November:
'Launch of the Greening Communities Guidance: Lifelong Learning for Climate and Sustainability Action'
Greening communities starts with learning!
By 2050, nearly 70% of the world’s population will live in urban areas, many already facing climate threats like extreme heat, flooding, and storms. Rural communities are also on the front lines, dealing with disrupted seasons and damaged ecosystems. The goodnews? Lifelong learning can empower communities everywhere to take climate action and build resilience.
Join us on 14 November 2025 for the launch of the Greening Communities Guidance publication, created by UIL and the World Organization of the Scout Movement under the Greening Education Partnership.
Discover core principles for green communities, minimum requirements and practical steps, tools and resources to turn learning into action.

TVET Teachers and Lifelong Learning
Teachers are at the heart of lifelong learning systems. They not only enable individuals to reach their full potential, but also adapt to the rapid transformations of society, economies and labour markets. For Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) teachers, this role is especially critical: by becoming lifelong learners and fostering lifelong learning capabilities, they prepare young people and adults alike to thrive in dynamic workplaces and to contribute to inclusive and sustainable societies.
To explore how policies and practices can support TVET teachers as both learners and facilitators of lifelong learning, join UIL and Shanghai Normal University for a webinar under the joint research project 'Teachers as Lifelong Learners'.

The International Review of Education: 70 years of research in lifelong learning
The International Review of Education (IRE) is the longest-running journal of comparative education in the world. Founded in 1931 by Professor Friedrich Schneider of the University of Cologne, it has been published by UNESCO since 1955. In 2025, we mark 70 years of continuous publication.
IRE’s mission to foster understanding and cooperation in the field of education is more relevant than ever. It aims to publish the best new scholarship from around the world, while also influencing the development of policy and practice in the field of lifelong learning through evidence-based research.
Join us for this webinar as we celebrate the launch of the 70th anniversary special issue of the International Review of Education. This edition offers valuable insights into the evolution of lifelong learning and explores its significance for the future.
