International LearningPlanet Alliance
Created in 2019 by the Learning Planet Institute and UNESCO, the LearningPlanet International Alliance leads a global community of practice dedicated to transforming Education and co-constructing a learning society.
Together, various complementary and committed players (NGOs, public players, cities and regions, schools and universities, social entrepreneurs, businesses, students, youth movements, activists, artists, etc.) share their knowledge, teaching practices and field experiences (creating new ways of learning, teaching, doing research and mobilising collective intelligence), to better prepare individuals and organisations to understand and collectively meet the challenges of our time.

Our international activities
The LearningPlanet Festival
Every year, the LearningPlanet Festival is organised around International Education Day (24 January), in partnership with UNESCO and hundreds of pioneering organisations in the fields of Education, culture, science, social and environmental impact, as well as with thousands of students and young activists from all over the world.
It is in France, under the name “Festival de l’Apprendre” (Festival of Learning), that this annual event has met with the greatest success.
More than 300 events, both local and online, provide an opportunity to share ideas and current projects, launch initiatives and mobilise the vital forces committed to adapting our learning models to the accelerating transitions of the 21st century.

Co-designing the Future of Learning with Youth!
Imagine a future where Education seamlessly meets the evolving needs of society and where the future is crafted by youth. At the Learning Planet Institute, we aspire to make this a reality. We collaborate with youth visionaries to co-design their educational journey and, through this, impact Education systems more broadly.
The Learning Planet Youth Design Challenge!
The Learning Planet Institute is driving an intergenerational, global movement to build a new form of planetary university, supported by UNESCO, adapted to Transitions across the world.
The Learning Planet Youth Design Challenge is an annual global initiative encouraging young individuals aged 15-26 to pitch their ideas for innovative learning programmes for their dream university.
This is your chance to make a real impact on the future of learning!

The LearningPlanet Action Groups
Learning Ecosystems for Human Flourishing
Community-led education for human flourishing in adversity
This project contributes to a movement of local learning ecosystems across Africa, Asia, and Latin America who are developing their own inclusive, sustainable education models grounded in community and resilience.
Our ‘ecosystem’ is a network of organisations that leverages local knowledge and partnerships to transform the learning process and holistically address barriers to learning like poverty, violence, and conflict.
By fostering collaboration and knowledge-sharing, the project enables scalable solutions to co-design context-specific learning systems across Africa, Latin America, and South Asia. This approach focuses on helping children flourish through sustainable and equitable learning practices. Differences strengthen this group’s approach to learning, through peer learning, South-South collaboration, and shared governance.
Peaceful Futures
Cultivating the Next Generation of Young Peacebuilders
The Peaceful Futures programme, a joint initiative of Global Education Futures and the Learning Planet Institute, aligned with UNESCO, aims to train and empower hundreds of young leaders worldwide.
Built around the co-design and acceleration of sustainable and scalable peacebuilding change projects tailored to their local contexts, the programme is based on strategic foresight thinking, conflict transformation tools, and a peace-oriented mindset.
Its purpose is to equip young peacebuilders (aged 18-35) with hands-on skills to address the root causes of conflicts and promote long-term harmony.

Teachers for the Planet
Over 2024, we have developed a community of practitioners involved in Education and climate change, working towards the goal of ensuring that every child has access to quality climate change Education.
We have collected 100 outstanding teacher-led and -tested local climate Education solutions from 60 countries! We presented these to policymakers in an online repository at the Rewired Summit as a part of COP28 on 8 December 2023.
