Autre
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).

'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.
