ENG THE FUTURES OF HIGHER EDUCATION: collective intelligence for knowledge and learning

The International UNESCO Chairs Forum on the Futures of Higher Education is being organized jointly by
Italy and UNESCO at Expo 2020 Dubai to mark the International Day of Education 2022. The Forum fits within
the overall framework of UNESCO’s Futures of Education initiative which seeks to generate an agenda for
global debate, research and action on the futures of education, learning and knowledge in a world of
increasing complexity, uncertainty and precarity. It is also one of the preparatory events for the 3rd UNESCO
World Higher Education Conference (WHEC2022) to be held 18-20 May 2022 in Barcelona, Spain. WHEC2022
and its preparatory events aim to define and prepare knowledge-based, participatory scenarios to shape a
new era of higher education systems and institutions, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19disruption.
