About the event
Concept
The Lifelong Learning Platform (LLLP), in cooperation with Springer’s International Handbook of Lifelong Learning, launches a new series of webinars to present cutting-edge research on lifelong learning to an interested audience. In a compact format, individual research findings and critical reflections on burning issues, such as the ecology of lifelong-lifewide learning for sustainable generative futures or learning for climate justice will be presented and discussed in the focus of social/political and the economic.
However, particular topics of participation and performance will also be addressed in the scope of learning ecosystems to resonate policy, practice with emerging dimensions of sustainable futures in lifelong learning. Our intention is to support advanced understanding, reasoning and reflections upon lifelong learning with quality measures, all the while highlighting problems, challenges, but also opportunities and limitations for an inclusive, equitable reality.
The webinar series will be organised by a Programme Committee of distinguished policy and research specialists and scholars in lifelong learning with various research orientations and practical experience.
Webinars take place twice a semester and are free of charge.
Webinar #1
The launch event will take place on Thursday, 23rd of May and will include a talk with the main editor of the handbook in addition to a research keynote. Register here to participate.
