The authors critique this version of lifelong learning by contrasting it with the notion of critical literacy. They also devote attention to the UN?s advocacy concerning lifelong education and sustainable development, arguing that for lifelong learning to help realize this goal, it needs to become more holistic in scope and engage more globally conceived social and human-earth relations. The book concludes with a discussion on lifelong learning and the COVID-19 pandemic. Leona M.
