Dear readers,
Recent developments have shown that TVET systems need to adapt to multiple disruptions that are reshaping education systems and labour markets worldwide, including climate change, demographic shifts and the growing presence of digital technologies in almost every aspect of life. It has also become evident that these global challenges can only be effectively addressed through collective action.
Over the past three months, UNEVOC Network members came together to contribute their vision and expertise to further develop UNESCO’s new Strategy for TVET 2022-2029, as well as engage in peer learning to explore the topic of new qualifications and competencies in TVET. The perspectives shared have showcased how emerging challenges can create new opportunities for innovation within the TVET ecosystem.
This issue of the UNEVOC Quarterly highlights our programmes to support TVET leaders in responding to the ongoing digital transformation and to help TVET institutions mainstream entrepreneurial learning. For a more detailed overview of our work, we invite you to access our Biennial Report 2020-2021.
As we approach the end of 2021, we take this opportunity to announce that on 1 January 2022, Mr Friedrich Huebler will start his appointment as Head of UNESCO-UNEVOC.
We look forward to your continued collaboration in the coming year and we wish you a healthy and successful 2022!
Best wishes from the UNESCO-UNEVOC team
