Lifelong Learning for Integral Transformation

Sofia Valdivielso

Development, 2010, vol. 53, issue 4, 471-474

Abstract: Sofia Valdivielso argues that education requires a new integral approach to learning that respects differences among people, cultures and all living things on the planet. She introduces the idea that a multifaceted understanding of wholeness is necessary if education is to help us grasp that life is a complex process of interrelations. She sees the transformative potential of education as critical to build an understanding of our multidimensional and plural unity that will ensure the survival of humanity and our planet.
