Inspired by the French Fête de la Musique, the #LEARNINGPLANETFESTIVAL is a global, open and bottom-up movement of diverse individuals (young people, educators, etc.) and organizations (schools, NGOs, companies, etc.) eager to celebrate learning in all its dimensions, in particular meaningful learning experiences that enable us to take care of ourselves, others and the planet. By synchronizing the world around International Education Day (January 24), the Festival offers an annual opportunity to unite all the driving forces in the fields of learning and sustainable development, highlight exemplary initiatives, share ideas and create numerous opportunities to connect and contribute to local projects following the event itself.
