Inclusive Lifelong Learning Conference: Learning ecosystems must be inclusive |
Participants of this month’s Inclusive Lifelong Learning Conference in Bali, Republic of Indonesia, called for the promotion of inclusive lifelong learning ecosystems that effectively cater to the needs of all learners, especially those of vulnerable and marginalized groups. More specifically, through the Bali Manifesto, the conference outcome document, participants called for implementation of comprehensive lifelong learning policies and the creation of inclusive learning spaces, curricula, learning pathways and learning materials, in line with the Marrakech Framework for Action. Public investment in lifelong learning is key to reaching these targets. |
