The first workshop introduced the Women, Family & Community (WFC) program, a pioneering initiative that transcends traditional literacy. The WFC program integrates social and emotional learning, family literacy, civic education, financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and global citizenship. Its comprehensive approach aims to empower learners, their families, and communities, fostering both social and economic development.

Following this, the second workshop focused on enhancing digital skills and integrating Artificial Intelligence into adult education practices. This session aimed to equip participants with the tools and knowledge needed to navigate the rapidly evolving digital environment, while also addressing ethical considerations as outlined by the UN Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence.

In the same vein, on 24-26 August 2024, the UNESCO Regional Office in Cairo, in collaboration with “Save The Children Egypt” and with the generous support of United States Agency for International Development (USAID), concluded a transformative "Training of Trainers" program. Over the three-day event, 30 educators, including 20 women, were equipped with essential skills to lead community-based actions for sustainable water use and climate change adaptation in Bani Suef. Through hands-on technical discussions and interactive activities, participants will now impact 378 community schools across 277 villages, reaching over 3,000 learners.

This initiative will drive lasting positive change in the region, extending its influence well beyond the training itself. Check this link to explore how climate change affects various sectors and ecosystems https://www.un.org/en/climatechange/science/climate-issues.
