Webinar

Formal education provides skills that are relevant to the labour market. However, many individuals, including school dropouts and adults who never had the opportunity to complete their formal education, miss this chance. Adult and Non-Formal Education (ANFE) offers a vital second chance for these individuals. By equipping them with the necessary skills and knowledge, ANFE has the potential to significantly improve their employability and capacity for job creation. Unemployment and underemployment significantly contribute to poverty and socio-economic instability in East Africa. These challenges are often worsened by the fact that many people do not benefit from these formal systems due to various reasons, such as economic barriers, dropping out of school early, cultural norms and being isolated geographically. Adult and Non-Formal Education provides a pathway for these individuals to gain relevant skills and re-enter the job market, thereby promoting economic resilience and social inclusion. This webinar seeks to explore the role of ANFE in fostering job creation and enhancing employability, and to critique the notion that the crisis is more about a lack of jobs than a lack of skills. Objectives of the Webinar 1. To Explore the Role of ANFE in Employment and Entrepreneurship 2. To Share Best Practices and Success Stories 3. Critique Current Approaches 4. To Foster Collaboration and Networking

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.
