Despite wide international interest in the 16^th PASCAL Conference in Tampere Finland, we have concluded that, it is necessary to postpone the event. We have re-scheduled it for 24-26 October 2022 again in hybrid mode. We know that many reading this message will be disappointed, because many of us were keen to meet together again after such a long break. We are very confident that the later date will be much more feasible, and look forward to meeting many of you then in person or virtually.

PASCAL International Observatory, whose European base is at the University of Glasgow, has been engaged in a range of activities around the world. These include a major collaboration with the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning, a successful webinar series, Learning Cities COVID-19 recovery: from research to practice, co-led by PASCAL director, Mike Osborne in 2020, which for the convenience of subscribers we are now re-posting and highlighting as a complete entity here.
