I am very excited to let you know about this Webinar. It is the first time that our Australian Learning Cities have come together to discuss how their cities and communities address the big issues facing communities around the world (for example, climate crisis, the public health challenges, rapid technological change, changing world of work, inequality, gender equality, peace…) at a local level through a commitment to lifelong learning.  (Canning City Council, Circular Head Council, Melton City Council, Wollongong City Council, and Wyndham City Council).

Last chance speaker call out! CYW Conference 2022

The Changing Your World Conference has gone fully online… and across three days.

As a result we’re reopening our call-out for speakers far and wide. We had our program pretty much full as a one day in person event – but now that we’re online across 3 days, we have more scope for concurrent sessions, and more space for speakers, who can come from anywhere across Australia – or even the world!

New Briefing Paper - Connecting People and Planet for a Sustainable Future

We are pleased to make available to PASCAL subscribers a further paper in the EcCoWell series by Peter Kearns, entitled, Connecting People and Planet for a Sustainable Future.

This paper examines how PASCAL EcCoWell 3 could be further developed as a path to a sustainable future in a turbulent period of disruptive change. The paper draws on the 2021 UNESCO Reimagining the Future Together report in its assessment of the critical situation confronting humanity and the planet requiring transformation of the world towards “a more just, equity, and sustainable future”.

Less than 10 days to go to submit your proposal ¦ PASCAL Conference 2022 - Tampere - 20-22 June

We remind you that there is a call for papers with a deadline of 17 March, 2022. So if you have not yet submitted your proposal, we encourage you to do so and we look forward to meeting you, either in Tampere, or virtually.
