Theme
The theme chosen for the Conference is “Mobilizing Distance Education for Social Justice and Innovation”, that is to say, contributing to mobilize Distance Education in its many modalities and forms, to build and transfer knowledge aimed at achieving valuable goals for societies that defend innovation and social justice.
The conference thus addresses one of the current priorities of international bodies such as the UNESCO’s “Education for All”, the OEI’s “Educational Goals XXI” and the European Union’s “Horizon Program 2020”, all of them geared to innovating to achieve intelligent, safe and inclusive societies.
Education is the systematic process of acquiring knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes that empower individuals to navigate the complexities of life. It involves formal instruction, experiential learning, and the development of critical thinking abilities. Education spans various stages, from early childhood to adulthood, and encompasses a diverse range of subjects and disciplines. It plays a pivotal role in shaping individuals' intellectual, social, and emotional growth, fostering a foundation for personal fulfillment, societal progress, and the advancement of knowledge. Ultimately, education is a lifelong journey that empowers individuals to contribute meaningfully to their communities and the global landscape.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Inclusive Learning in a Time of Crisis: disruptive migrations and pedagogies of integration and rights
1. Inclusive Learning in a Time of Crisis:
disruptive migrations and pedagogies of
integration and rights
Dr. Alan Bruce
ULS Dublin
New Education Forum
Brussels, 17 November 2016
2. A time of questions
• What is really going on in our world?
• What will an uncertain future bring?
• Where does education end?
• What is the new labour market?
• What are we learning?
• How are we learning it?
• Why are we learning it?
• What do we value……..?
3. 1. Educational change contexts
• Contours of pervasive change
• Crisis, challenge and the impact of growing
inequality
• Education and learning in a transformed
world
• Innovation and technology
• Globalization
• Embedding learning excellence with
uncertain employment outcomes
4. Anticipating the future (OECD
1994)
Future learning and employment needs (Jobs
Study)
•Policy change
•Flexibility
•Entrepreneurship
•Internationalization
•Technology
5. The future is now…
• Potential provision of universal schooling now
realized
• Internationalization is the norm
• Technology pervasive but unevenly accessible
• ‘Flexibility’: weapon or tool?
• Entrepreneurship: what is it?
• Policy: shaping or copying?
• Permanent crisis?
7. Change dynamics
• Sustained and systemic
• Accelerating
• Multidimensional and simultaneous
• Structural incapacity to incorporate required
modifications and adjustments
• Deep uncertainty in terms of future options
• Unprecedented levels of challenge
• Migration as threat or opportunity
9. 2. Impact of socio-economic crisis
• Globalization – accelerating and pervasive
• Crisis and re-structuring since 2008
• Stratification and inequity – issue of social justice
• Labor market transformation
• Issues on inclusion – token or real?
• Integration, assimilation or denial?
• Understanding new diversities

• Generational demographics
10. A Transformed World
• End of old certainties
• No return to ‘normal’
• Population disruptions

• Informal economies
• Constant connectedness and information explosion
12. Crisis since 2008
• Seismic shift in human relationships

• Children under 14: 140,000.
• Between 14-17: 62,000
• 2016: 340,000 by sea – 6,000 drowned
• Majority from Syria
• Growth of resistance and xenophobia
14. The bottom line…
An assumption of stable work patterns and linear
economic development is no longer possible
Learning systems must innovate and respond
accordingly
15. Supporting learning for refugees
• Focus on motivation
• Acknowledging trauma and loss
• From curriculum to competence
• Content to meaningful action
• From formal teaching to creation of bonds and
links and hope
• Mentoring
• Models of best practice

groups

discrimination

• Implementation of diversity practice and
intercultural competence
18. Global Citizenship
• Fostering inclusion in contradictory socio-economic environment problematic
• Scale of economic disruption reflected in wars, genocide, ethnic cleansing, health
issues and extraordinary movements of people either as economic migrants or
refugees – now permanent and accelerating dimension of globalized life
• Global Citizenship - Global Education First Initiative (2012).
Education must fully assume its central role in helping people to forge more
just, peaceful, tolerant and inclusive societies. It must give people the
understanding, skills and values they need to cooperate in resolving the
interconnected challenges of the 21st century.
• Citizenship reformulated in terms of rights and obligations and potentially new
forms of post-national citizenship.
19. Inclusive global citizenship in
learning systems
• Changes produced in human and technical aspects of the
globalization process shape how global education addresses various
learning communities previously excluded by reason of prejudice,
discrimination or remoteness.
• Critical importance of innovation and vision as key priorities to
develop learning to combat socio-economic marginalization.
• Pervasive globalizing process means intercultural learning strategy
needs parallel international understanding of how cultural diversity
impacts learning needs of populations subjected to unprecedented
levels of change.
20. Anticipating the future
• Excellence goes beyond mechanical quality
measurement systems
• Critical role of diversity and equality approaches
• Gender and inclusion – the centrality of women
• Demographics and youth intervention
• Competitiveness and sustainability
• Education as business or a place apart?
• Offering critical space and alternative
perspectives
21. Future directions
• Training of trainers and teachers
• Multilingualism: shared learning
• Developing skills – competence transmission
• Developing attitudes – securing motivation
• Developing buy-in – loyalty and commitment
• Active inclusion strategies
• Risk taking and the poison of racism
• Review, evaluation and research
22. Conclusions
• Education at a crossroads: refugee crisis highlights
options
• ‘Progression model’ challenged
• Impact of increasing inequality: access and resources
• Crisis as the norm: refugee crisis is not the end
• Performance, standards, quality, reproducibility and
added value at the heart of competence: but context
equally crucial
• Disruptive narratives demand policy and shared goals
• Innovative learning demands imagination and vision
