By Life Long Learning Platform (LLLP)
From 8 to 12 December 2025, the Lifelong Learning Platform will host the 15th edition of the Lifelong Learning Week (LLLWeek) as part of its 20th anniversary celebration. Each day of the week will focus on one of LLLP’s renewed priorities: Investment, Inclusion, Innovation, Internationalisation and Intermediaries.
LLLWeek will start with the European Lifelong Learning Stakeholders’ Forum on 8 December, during the day dedicated to Investment. This year, the Stakeholders’ Forum comes at a time when the EU’s flagship programme, Erasmus+, is being renewed and the negotiations for a new EU budget just started; creating an opportunity for civil society networks as well as broader education and training providers to confront their perspectives and expectations for the next Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) and help shape the next steps in ensuring education and training are at the heart of the EU budget.
After the forum, LLLP will celebrate its 20th birthday and the beginning of the LLLWeek with an Opening reception that will include the announcement of a renewed Lifelong Learning Manifesto. The LLLWeek events are free and the programme includes a wide range of topics from digital inclusion to micro-credentials, VET as a boost for competitiveness to the role of teachers in citizenship education, so make sure to explore the events and sign up for as many as you want!
