Content

In Cities of Learning, we offer new 21st-century skills education opportunities and use digital Open Badges to recognise learning, skills and achievements. Developing badge-based recognition systems require the involvement of national youth policy and youth work stakeholders.

You will meet with Lithuanian national youth representatives and stakeholders to share 21st-century skills education and recognition.

This activity will create opportunities for you:
  • to meet people, organisations and stakeholders from various cities and exchange about our realities;
  • to learn about National youth policy and inspiring youth skills programmes;
  • to hear about recognition practices using digital Open Badges;
  • to reflect and share how we can involve stakeholders to create recognition for 21st-century skills.

This activity is a part of a Cities of Learning study visit organised from 16 to 21 May 2022 in Vilnius, Lithuania. The study visit is realised within the Erasmus+ co-funded strategic partnership "Online 21st century skills education".

Watch a video below where young people talk about the importance of youth policy developments. This video is an outcome of a Youth Seminar that brought together more than 40 young people from 8 Cities of Learning. These are results of the "Cities of Learning: youth co-design learning, civic and career pathways" partnership.



In another video, you can watch various stakeholders talking about Open Badges and their benefits. This video is an outcome of a strategic partnership, "Trusted Badge Systems". Download the complete project's report.
