International Alliance

An international learning community

Created in 2019 by the Learning Planet Institute and UNESCO, the International Alliance is a global community of practice dedicated to the transformation of Education and to the co-construction of a learning society. 

Throughout the year, the International Alliance team leads a network of multiple actors with a highlight – the LearningPlanet Festival – organised each year around International Education Day (24 January).

"I never imagined that I would be able to share my advocacy and personal projects with a global audience, yet this is what I have been offered today! I want to be a voice for young people and an instrument of change. We deserve a seat at the table where decisions are made"

The LearningPlanet Alliance brings together diverse complementary actors (NGOs, public actors, cities and territories, schools and universities, social entrepreneurs, companies, students, youth movements, activists, artists…) committed to a common goal: to teach individuals how to “take care of themselves, the others and the planet”

Together, they share their knowledge, their pedagogical practices and their field experiences (creating new ways of learning, teaching, researching and mobilising collective intelligence), in order to better prepare individuals and organisations to understand and face, collectively, the challenges of our time. 

"We share the ambition to connect institutions with innovators on the ground to identify, co-develop using agile practices, and roll out innovative learning solutions aligned with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals all around the world."

The LearningPlanet Action Groups

The LearningPlanet Action Groups bring together organisations committed to common causes.

They are communities of practice dedicated to dialogue between stakeholders (institutions, educators, social entrepreneurs, citizens, young people, etc.), but also spaces for joint research on topical issues and for creating impact projects.

Each group is co-created with partners who are pioneers in their field.

"Young people will co-create the future: they are incubators of solutions! The festival creates spaces for reflection and debate, where people can confront ideas, approaches and cultures to learn to work together. It’s not just a hub of innovation, it's a space for learning democracy and rebuilding it according to shared, fundamental principles, such as the right to a quality education and lifelong learning and establishing education as a public and common good"

The LearningPlanet Festival is organised each year for International Education Day (January 24) in partnership with UNESCO and hundreds of pioneering organisations in the fields of education, culture, science, social and environmental impact, as well as with thousands of students and young activists from around the world.

The hundreds of events, both on site and online, are opportunities to share ideas and projects in progress, to launch initiatives, and to meet the actors that are committed to adapting our learning models to the accelerated transitions of the 21st century.
