| description | In the era of digital transformation, the intersection of adult learning, digital competence, global
progress, and sustainable development emerges as a pivotal focus. This article dives into the complex
interaction of these factors centering on the pivotal role of digital competence in advancing
sustainable development goals through adult education. By exploring the dynamic landscape of
technology and education, the paper investigates how enhancing digital competence among adult
learners facilitates global understanding and fosters sustainable behaviors. The accessibility
afforded by digital education empowers individuals at any life stage or circumstance to actively
participate in lifelong learning, upskilling, and reskilling. The research systematically examines
literature to capture the essence of the study, emphasizing the vital importance of digital
competency for global understanding and sustainable development. It elucidates key concepts,
unraveling the intricate relationship between digital transition, adult education, and the
overarching pursuit of sustainability. This study posits hypotheses that underscore the critical role
of digital competence in sparking global knowledge and catalyzing sustainable development within
the dynamic realm of digital change. It contends that digital technologies, through personalized
education, contribute significantly to the achievement of global sustainability goals. The findings
accentuate how the digital revolution in adult education transcends conventional boundaries,
leveraging technology to democratize knowledge and foster global collaboration. Empowered as
change agents, learners equipped with both global awareness and sustainable skills have the
potential to propel society towards a more interconnected and sustainable future. The study
concludes with insights underscoring the profound link between digital competency, global
awareness, adult education, and sustainable development, offering valuable guidance for educators,
policymakers, and academics |
