ifip An IFIP initiative Focussed on Lifelong Learning… …in a Knowledge Society Conceived in Paris (April 2006) Born in Poitiers, France (October 2006) The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning

ifip The AGORA Initiative takes into consideration the growing place of Lifelong Learning as a transversal theme in the information or knowledge society, and the growing need of networking and collaboration between partners and stakeholders. The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning

ifip The AGORA Initiative, an element of the process of revitalisation of the IFIP strategy, aims at implementing a dynamic methodology for initiating cooperation projects on Lifelong Learning with many different stakeholders. It is providing a methodical concept of action where contextual local efforts are connected to each other and contribute to generic common knowledge about Lifelong Learning in a synergetic manner. The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning

ifip The AGORA Initiative for Lifelong Learning aims, on an annual basis, at promoting synergy between different kinds of actors, gathering updated priorities of each partner, adjusting the problematic all along the evolution of main international programmes, facilitating the networking of partners, taking into account the emerging needs in Lifelong Learning in the Information Society, promoting new projects, acting as a catalyst for the IFIP community, following the New Strategy of IFIP.

Co-operation projects Aimed at enhancing e-competence and knowledge work competence of professionals and students C. Methodical approach to knowledge sharing Allowing contextual, local project efforts to be connected, contributing in a synergetic manner to generic knowledge about Lifelong Learning The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning

ifip Actions A.Planning meetings (Poitiers, Paris, Seoul,…) Bringing together stakeholders and project initiators Knowledge sharing, networking and developing synergy Outlining of co-operation projects Defining work process for planning and co-operation B. Seminars (Poitiers, Seoul, Addis Ababa, Krakow, Kuala Lumpur…) Sharing of local, contextual knowledge Interactive development of conceptual frameworks C.

ifip The Studio-Atelier Methodology Knowledge Development – Knowledge Sharing Studios Local projects enhancing e-competence and knowledge work competence of professionals and students taking account of the level of access to ICT and of e-readiness of the national society. Atelier (International) review group, where contextual local efforts are connected to each other contributing in a synergetic way to generic shared knowledge about Lifelong Learning; the generic knowledge in its turn is driving the local efforts The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning

ifip Studios On the local context level Studios will be directed at real- world creation of practical instances of e-Education for Lifelong Learning in different areas of computer science education and educational use of ICT. Studios will provide contextual solutions, suitable for the cultural, social and economic context and for the special demands of the specific subject area of Lifelong Learning. The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning

ifip On a generalizing and co-ordinating level AGORA introduces an Atelier which is mutually linked with the studios. The ‘Atelier’-function in the project: generate generic knowledge based on the experiences of the different studios. this knowledge can be applied in local ‘Studio’s’ where Lifelong Learning pilot implementations are realised. the generic educational Lifelong Learning model developed in the Atelier will be evaluated and improved in a process of critical review of the pilot implementations concurrently improve practice of Lifelong Learning in the local Studios. Complex subject areas may have several ateliers to co-ordinate their activities. Thus a hierarchical structure of specific, topic related and more general ateliers may emerge.

ifip Conceptual Frameworks A learning organisation for Lifelong Learners (Seoul 2.0) How to create a Lifelong Learning environment (Addis Ababa 2.0) The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning

ifip Seoul 2.0 Model: Organizations in a Knowledge based economy How to become a learning organisation The second AGORA event, a Seminar about Lifelong Learning, was held in Seoul, Korea, 3-4 June The result of this first “Atelier” on Lifelong Learning was created: “Seoul 2.0.”, a model helping IFIP to become a real “Learning Organisation” in the Lifelong Learning Society. The Seoul 2.0 Model for Learning Organisations is a practical analysis tool that helps managers and others to implement organisations that are sustainable in the knowledge society. The model is generic and applicable in different, specific contexts. The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning

ifip Addis Ababa 2.0 Model: Professionals in the Knowledge based economy. How to realise a lifelong learning environment; Educate knowledge workers The Addis Ababa 2.0 Model for Learning Environments is a practical analysis tool for educational designers to build and implement a lifelong learning environment inside an existing organisation. The model helps to design the environment on four levels: personal, project, organisational and societal level. It takes account of the local organisational and societal context and results in an action plan suiting the particular situation. The Addis Abba 2.0 Model is integrated with the Seoul 2.0 The IFIP AGORA initiative on Lifelong Learning
