Anthropological studies show that citizens who acquire new knowledge and skills in a wide range of contexts, have more weapons to adapt to the social and environmental changes. The continuous education<\/strong> plays therefore an essential role for our generation’s transition towards sustainable societies<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50px”]

For this reason, UNESCO has established in 2015 a Global Network of Learning Cities<\/strong>, a net of learning communities and cities. This net is very strong in the developed regions but it is getting stronger even in the developing countries and it has today 229 cities in 64 countries.<\/p>\n

Every city is unique. Nevertheless, when it comes to education, cities show some common characteristics. Every Learning City<\/strong>, at every development level, can be able to find a strong advantage by sharing ideas among them<\/strong>, for example drawing information from the solutions adopted by another city to solve a given problem.<\/p>\n

The GNLC of UNESCO supports and improves the practice of continuous learning in the cities all over the world, supporting dialogues over politics and actions of mutual learning among the involved cities, making connections, promoting partnerships and giving tools for the development of knowledge and to encourage and recognise the progresses reached creating the Learning Cities.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1634745959834{padding-top: 15px !important;}” el_class=”testo”]<\/p>\n
