Along with the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL), regional field offices explore strategic directions and cooperation in recent conferences.
The UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL) and the Ministry of Economic Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia jointly organized an Inclusive Lifelong Learning Conference in Bali, Republic of Indonesia, from 3 to 6 July 2023. The conference brought together over 300 participants from 50 countries—predominantly from South-East Asia—to engage in policy discussion on inclusive lifelong learning, to identify strategic directions, and to foster cooperation on adult education and lifelong learning issues.
Over the course of four days, high-level representatives from South-East Asian countries, partnering nations, and technical and financial partners came together to discuss lifelong learning policies and initiatives, and to focus on upskilling and reskilling, with an emphasis on inclusion. Participants also explored effective ways to translate the commitments outlined in the CONFINTEA VII ‘Marrakech Framework for Action: Harnessing the transformational power of adult learning and education’ (MFA) into policy measures and strategies.
