4. Executive Summary
• There is an urgent need to create a culture of lifelong learning. The understanding that all levels of
learning are learner-centered represents a critical shift in traditional assumptions about education and
demand-responsive planning. Based on this understanding, learners are active agents rather than passive
recipients of prescribed knowledge. They actively shape each learning process and its outcomes, and they
use them to maximize their potential. Consequently, lifelong learning is for all, and learning opportunities
are created for the most excluded learners. Therefore, a global learning ecosystem should be built
collectively to inspire and empower learners by providing a wealth of opportunities. A culture of lifelong
learning requires new educational policies and the provision of real opportunities for people to learn
throughout their lives. To achieve this culture, universities need to develop innovative business models.
The socio-ethical and moral dimensions of learning and education must be taken seriously because they
are a priority in the agenda on social justice and human rights. Only then can resilient and sustainable
education be achieved to reflect the major global initiatives described and discussed in this chapter.
5. Expected Outcomes
THE SESSION AIMS TO FOCUS ON RETHINKING EDUCATION TO
SHAPE THE FUTURE
THERE ARE NEEDS TO CATALYZE A GLOBAL DEBATE ON HOW
KNOWLEDGE, EDUCATION AND LEARNING NEED TO BE
REIMAGINED IN A WORLD OF INCREASING COMPLEXITY,
UNCERTAINTY, AND PRECARITY. IN THIS PROCESS RESILIENT
LEADERSHIP IS CRUCIAL
11. GLOBAL HIGHER EUCATION
AFTER COVID-19
• How does the digital transformation affect society? What
does the workplace of the future look like and what do we
work with in an increasingly digital world?
• Who led the digitalisation of your company? «. The options
given are: the CEO, the IT manager or the coronavirus. The
correct answer is of course Covid-19. Now the pandemic
eases its paralyzing grip on the world and soon the wheels
are turning fully again. Then we can state that Covid-19
became another catalyst for the ongoing digital
transformation. The pandemic became the fast forward
button that catapulted us into the digital future. Not only
the outside world has changed. We have changed. How we
live, how we eat and how we work. What we like, what we
dream about and how we plan for the future. It took a crisis
of Covid-19's magnitude and length for us to seriously
change. Basically.

2030: The new “normal” in
education
• Today’s innovations often become tomorrow’s
commonplace. The OECD Future of Education
and Skills 2030 project has observed some
innovative features of education systems that
are just emerging but that may become the
“new normal” in tomorrow’s education
systems. To find out more, visit
