Co-organized by APCEIU, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea, and in partnership with UNESCO, the 5th International Conference on GCED (IConGCED) will be held from 3 to 5 November 2020. In response to the COVID-19 situation, the Conference will take place virtually on the IConGCED website and be live-streamed on YouTube.
Under the main theme of ‘Fostering Solidarity and Hope through GCED,’ the 5th IConGCED aims to enhance the audience’s understanding of key challenges and opportunities of GCED in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, it intends to explore the roles of GCED in addressing and improving situations, which can be deemed as “multiple pandemics (economic polarization, hatred, discrimination, racism, militarization, ecological and environmental issues, etc.)” and the ways GCED can contribute to revitalizing solidarity.
A provisional programme for the three-day virtual event is as follows:
