The UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning, the UNESCO Cairo Office and UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) warmly invite you to the hybrid side event, ‘Greening TVET, Adult Learning and Education’, at the 27th Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP27) on 9 November 2022. The event will shed the light on the importance of TVET and adult learning and education (ALE) for climate action.

Citizens worldwide – no matter their age – must be empowered with the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes to demand and support the green transition of our societies. Climate change mitigation requires a dedicated and comprehensive lifelong learning system, strategies and concrete action plans, at local, national and regional level, that place adult learning and education at the core. It also demands strong cross-sectoral and inter-ministerial partnerships to deliver ALE programmes aimed at raising awareness and equipping all individuals with the skills and knowledge to lead the transformation to a sustainable future.

The side event will highlight the role of adult learning and education and TVET and the importance of a targeted strategy and partnership in ALE and TVET provision for a sustainable and green future. It will also showcase good strategic practices at national/local, institutional and individual level (from the UNESCO Global Network of Learning Cities, the UNEVOC Network and the UNESCO ESD Network).

Webinar: 'Exploring learning through culture: Leveraging the arts to empower cities'

You are warmly invited to the UNESCO Global Network of Learning Cities' Webinar: ‘Exploring learning through culture: Leveraging the arts to empower cities’ on 15 October 2025. This event is part of our global webinar series, ‘Unlocking the power of lifelong learning’, bringing together stakeholders from across the globe on the first and third Wednesday of every month.

This webinar will focus on culture and the arts as powerful vehicles for promoting lifelong learning in cities. Creative processes, whether they are related to the visual arts, music, dance or theatre, can foster new ways of thinking, personal growth and self-expression. These activities not only enhance cognitive abilities but also inspire individuals to see the world in a different way, encouraging innovative and outside-the-box thinking. Artistic interventions in urban spaces can transform city environments, offering opportunities to reconnect with local cultural heritage and forge stronger community bonds.

This webinar will delve into the potential of culture and artistic practices to shape urban learning experiences. Speakers will consider how cultural institutions and public art initiatives make culture-based learning accessible to diverse audiences. They will discuss strategies for integrating the arts into urban education policies. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how cultural initiatives can be designed to enhance educational inclusion, engagement and empowerment across diverse communities.

Time
15 October 2025, 13:00 to 14:00 (CEST)
