To keep pace with the changing demands of their profession, teachers and adult educators must consistently enhance their teaching methodologies, digital skills, and teaching practices. They also play a vital role in fostering a culture of lifelong learning and strengthening lifelong learning systems.
In collaboration with the Shanghai Normal University, the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL) hosted the webinar ‘Adult Educators as Lifelong Learners and Facilitators of Lifelong Learning’. It united policy makers, practitioners and researchers to fundamentally reexamine the relationship between lifelong learning and educators within the context of adult education.
