The conference takes place in the context in which, worldwide, the United Nations, especially through UNESCO, the main catalyst of the Summit on Transforming Education and the necessary adoption of the new „Social Contract for Education”, is stimulating major transformations, with an impact on learning and knowledge, especially the inclusive one, intergenerationally open to all age categories.

Furthermore, at a European level, the Conference on the Future of Europe revealed the need for transformative projects with an increased degree of transparency in order to especially support the training a new generation of young pro-European citizens.

At the national level, the ongoing implementation of the reforms to which Romania has committed itself through the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNNR), as a programme agreed with the European Commission, including by modernizing the legislation in favor of „the Educated Romania,” offers the optimal opportunity to bring all the protagonists of the expected reforms around the same table: teachers and trainers, universities and research-innovation centers, government authorities, civil society organizations and international agencies, pupils, students and their parents.
