Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Education has been undergoing rapid transformations due to various socio-economic, technological, and environmental factors. Digital transformation, crises, climate change, and geopolitical instabilities have exposed vulnerabilities in education systems worldwide. The need for resilient education, which can adapt to disruptions while ensuring continuous learning, has become more critical than ever. Historically, education systems have been structured around stability and predictability, but today’s changing world demands adaptability, flexibility, and sustainability in education policies, pedagogies, and infrastructure.

A multidimensional approach is required to address these challenges. Technological innovation must be combined with vigorous ethical frameworks and inclusive policies. Education must become more adaptive and accessible, ensuring the continuity of learning, bridging educational inequalities, integrating technological advancements to facilitate digital readiness, and fostering required competencies globally. 

The Special Issue aims to explore strategies, innovations, and policies that enhance the resilience of education systems in the face of global challenges, such as pandemics, climate change, technological disruptions, economic uncertainties, and geopolitical instabilities. It seeks to provide a multidisciplinary perspective on how education can adapt, recover, and evolve to ensure inclusive, equitable, and high-quality learning opportunities for all.

This Special Issue welcomes research articles, case studies, and theoretical contributions on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to, the following:

  • Educational resilience;
  • Digital transformation and technological adaptation;
  • Inclusive and equitable education;
  • Sustainability and climate-resilient education;
  • Teacher training, leadership, and capacity building;
  • Global cooperation and policy frameworks;
  • Future-proofing education for lifelong learning.
