The COVID-19 pandemic has revolutionized education, catalyzing significant growth in online learning communities. School education has been profoundly altered, prompting the European Commission to urge widespread engagement in shaping the future of education.

Schools must not revert to pre-pandemic norms in the wake of global disruptions like the pandemic and recent conflicts.
This seminar emphasizes the critical choices and decisions that will redefine the future of education. It advocates for proactive decision-making and collective action among education stakeholders to ensure the well-being of educators and students alike.
