Abstract
Reimagining digital learning for sustainable development offers a compilation of curated insights from
leading experts in the educational sector, as they contemplate how educational systems will have to
reinvent themselves to support the achievement of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development
Goals (SDG) by 2030. The ambitious SDGs pose multi-sectoral challenges requiring massive upskilling
and reskilling of the workforce as it faces the challenges of meeting the job requirements of the Fourth
Industrial Revolution. As they acknowledge that educational systems must prepare learners for
multiple career pathways involving jobs that do not yet exist, the authors posit that resourceful and
innovative approaches to educational development will be required for meaningful and powerful
transformation of educational institutions that, to this day, are constrained by a system created for the
First Industrial Revolution. Lifelong learning is brought to the forefront as a model for developing
institutional capacity, on the fringes of formal education.
