Nine advocates of lifelong learning impress Slovenia

Last year, Covid-19 interfered with many of our bold plans to celebrate the 25th anniversary of LLW at both the state and local level. We wrote extensively about this in an article in which the virtual National LLW Opening 2020 is highlighted. The entirely different concept of the event brought us a lot of value — above all, the 25 testimonies about the importance of lifelong learning. They were also brought to the attention of the employees of the International Cooperation and European Affairs Service at the MESS when they searched for accompanying materials for the Skills Summit Slovenia 2020, a meeting of ministers and other high representatives of OECD member states. Eventually, the idea was born to use the LLW testimonies to create a campaign to raise awareness of the importance and benefits of lifelong learning. In a co-production of SIAE, MESS and the Slovenian Press Agency, we created a video publication entitled The more you know, the more you are worth — if you learn all your life.
