Popis: The world is experiencing rapid economic shifts, social challenges, climate change, and environmental degradation, while the COVID-19 pandemic threw into sharp relief and accelerated the need for the whole society to adapt to digitalisation. Vocational education and training (VET) systems are called to provide flexible responses to foster resilience and responsiveness to changing societal and labour market needs. VET providers play a fundamental role in this scenario: as stressed by the Recommendation of the Council of the European Union on VET for sustainable competitiveness, social fairness and resilience (2020/C 417/01), high-quality and innovative VET systems provide people with skills for work, personal development and citizenship, which help them to adapt to and deliver on the twin digital and green transitions, to cope with emergencies and economic shocks, while also supporting economic growth and social cohesion. This collection of Sustainable Learning Canvases, developed in the scope of the PI-VET (Powering the Innovation of Vocational Education and Training) Project, Cooperation Partnership co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, seeks to serve as a tool that vocational teachers and trainers can adopt, together with their learners and stakeholders, to address multiple and interrelated challenges of their learning communities, such as the exclusion of marginalised and disadvantaged groups, gender imbalances in the labour market, gaps in digital competences and skills for new green jobs. The Canvases were designed to be used by VET providers to collaboratively create innovative sustainable curricula which embed inclusive, digital and green practices and a strategy to develop supportive ecosystems around them. The Canvases aim to represent the practical and easy-to-use tool for VET providers to apply the consortium's Methodology for Sustainable Learning Programs into their work and, therefore, to adopt more inclusive practices that serve the needs of diverse target groups, innovate their pedagogical approaches and learning materials, enhance digital competencies and skills for digital and green transformations, integrate environmental-friendly means of teaching and training, and plan the engagement of relevant stakeholders to create valuable ecosystems. The tools are addressed to VET teachers and trainers but can be tailored to apply to any curriculum and are transferable to any other Education and Training provider. The PI-VET project consortium developed the Canvases through online co-creation labs with vocational educators and business sector representatives. Particularly, five co-creation labs were implemented in Bulgaria, Cyprus, Ireland, Italy and Spain, engaging 87 participants, such as vocational teachers and trainers, representatives of companies, business associations and policy-makers from the participating countries.
