Résumé :

This special issue has been stimulated by the initiative of the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL) in developing the International Platform of Learning Cities (IPLC). The modern concept of a learning city/region originated from that of a «learning society». A key question for the future of learning cities is the extent to which the learning city strategy can serve as a vehicle for cities to address these issues in a strategic way that builds inclusive, sustainable cities, able to adapt to 21st-century conditions. Several papers in this issue provide insights into this question, although from different perspectives : educating cities in Latin America, learning cities in East Asia : Japan, China and the Republic of Korea, the role of building learning cities in the rejuvenation of Africa and building child friendly cities in the MENA region. Some new initiatives on the assessment and evaluation of learning cities have been providing the potential to enhance the quality and sustainability of learning cities, such as the Composite Learning Index (CLI) developed by the Canadian Council on Learning or an analytical quality framework for learning cities and regions supported under the European Commission's Grundtvig programme.
