Moodle LMS team has joined the Higher Education for Good foundation as a founding partner. The Higher Education for Good foundation is a not for profit foundation with a mission to develop and promote new models of humanistic higher education for a sustainable society.
Humanistic Higher Education goes beyond acquiring work skills. It empowers young people with the means of self-realization, and encourages a systemic world view in which humankind co-habits in harmony with other living beings within planetary boundaries. By focusing on human dignity and collective well-being, it fosters both individual flourishing and sustainable ways of living together.
A Humanistic model is influenced by — and influences — three interacting structural dimensions:
- Young people – To engage with youth in the co-creation of the new humanistic education models to transform society.
- Organizations – To educate young people to lead organizations whose mission is to integrate sustainable economic, societal, and environmental goals, responsible companies, multilateral institutions, foundations, cooperatives, non-profits, etc.
- Technological changes – To integrate new technologies (for example, A.I.) such as complex tools with the potential to both generate and solve environmental, societal, and economic challenges
The Higher Education for Good foundation has a innovative initiative – The Youth Talks. The Youth Talk initiative is giving voice to young people between the ages of 15–29 years old, around the world to better understand their aspirations, the challenges they face.
“Youth Talks” is just the beginning of a series of projects that the Higher Education for Good Foundation is implementing to help us rethink tomorrow’s education models from the ground up.
