Learning Planet Institute
Launched by the Learning Planet Institute and UNESCO on the 24th of January 2020 on the occasion of the International Day of Education, #LearningPlanet is an open alliance with a cause, dedicated to learning stakeholders and communities. It is a long-term initiative with a mission to gather players from around the world in order to identify, celebrate, enhance and scale up innovative educational solutions towards sustainable futures that ensure the respect, well-being and fulfilment of oneself, the others and the planet. #LearningPlanet defines itself as a middle-ground: it connects institutions with grassroots movements and innovators to scale up their ideas.

European Social Fund Transnational “Learning & Skills” Thematic Network
European Social Fund Transnational “Learning & Skills” Thematic Network: The ESF is Europe’s main instrument for supporting jobs, helping people get better jobs and ensuring fairer job opportunities for all EU citizens. It works by investing in Europe’s human capital – its workers, its young people and all those seeking a job. ESF financing of EUR 10 billion a year is improving job prospects for millions of Europeans, in particular those who find it difficult to get work. The programme is managed by Member States but to boost cooperation among Member States and enable citizens to learn from experiences and good practices in another country there is “transnational cooperation” component. This latter is organised in Transnational Thematic Networks. LLLP joined the Thematic Network on “Learning and Skills” in 2017.
