I am writing on behalf of the CMA to invite you to an upcoming conference organized by partners of UIL, the CMA (Comité mondial pour les apprentissages tout au long de la vie (CMAtlv), partenaire officiel de l’UNESCO -- World Committee for Lifelong Learning (WCLLL), official partner of the UNESCO) on 10 February 2022 titled “TERRITOIRES APPRENANTS : DE LA NAISSANCE A LA RECONNAISSANCE”, or in English: “LEARNING TERRITORIES: FROM BIRTH TO RECOGNITION”.

This online conference will take from 5:30 to 7:30 pm and is co-organised by the CMAtlv and the Cité des Métiers de Paris La Villette,  from the Cité des sciences et de l’industrie, in French with English translation.

The conference is part of a broader project that aims to transform regions (territoires) in IRAQI Kurdistan where there are displaced persons and refugees into learning spaces. This event looks to answer some of the following questions, through the different speaker interventions:

• How can we take advantage of the successful experiences of learning spaces and regions in order to make this concrete experimentation a success that will benefit everyone in the future?
• Some regions call themselves "learning regions": what characterises them? How can a dynamic of learning be created, by whom, with whom, according to what process, with what means? What is the role of local, national and international organisations?
• How, in particular, can we transform regions and territories in crisis: employment areas with high unemployment, refugee and displaced persons' camps, regions deprived for various reasons, into places of life, of hope, of progress where each person, whatever his or her situation (age, gender, level of qualification, profession, state of physical and mental health, etc.), can find the resources to bounce back, to be included in his or her society, to find his or her place, his or her job, his or her usefulness, to regain his or her dignity, and to make progress throughout life?
