Learning has always been important: for economic development, social wellbeing and personal fulfilment. But the need for learning – and the way that people learn – is changing faster now than ever before. Three forces are driving this change: First, Globalisation: Trade between economies now represents over 60% of global GDP Second, Accelerating technological change: General purpose technologies that transform society and the economy are appearing at a rate never seen before, with no end in sight Third, Demography: To put this into perspective, aging populations face ten times greater a financial burden from demographic shifts than from the recent recession; elsewhere, young populations demand a rising standard of living, and hourglass populations in Sub-Saharan Africa mean there are too few teachers to teach too many students. These changes are not separate but mutually reinforcing. They create competition between education providers, researchers and learners themselves meaning it is no longer good enough to be second best. They place a premium on the skills that enable people to work in global teams – but also on developing a clear identity in this globalised world. Together, they are creating climate change in education – and an endless demand for learning throughout life.
