We were thrilled to be part of a warm contingent welcoming Raúl Valdes Cotera, of UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning to Waterford for an insightful discussion on possible partnerships and collaborations to foster lifelong learning opportunities for citizens across the Southern Region following the designation of Waterford as a UNESCO Learning City earlier this year. The designation of Waterford as a UNESCO Learning City is strongly supported by regional policy and advances the ambition set out in the Southern Regional Assembly’s Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy to develop the entire Southern Region as a Learning Region. We look forward to progressing our shared vision for collaborative ventures on lifelong learning with our partners and progressing the concept of the Learning Region.
