Response to UNESCO’s ‘Education in a Post-Covid World’ Report

In UNESCO’s Progress Update on the Futures of Education, published in March 2021, UNESCO denied the value of Self-Directed Education and autonomous learning, despite much significant scientific evidence to support its efficacy. Considering such a stance could seriously jeopardise the UN agenda 2030 to lead to a regenerative education by 2050 for more just and sustainable futures.

Gabriel Groiss, Vice-Chair of the European Democratic Education Community (EUDEC), initiated the following response to UNESCO with the contribution of various actors for change worldwide:
