The 2023 publication covers various topics such as globalisation, citizenship and democracy, security, ageing and modern cultures. The report explains for example that education can play a role in helping to prevent or diminish security risks and better prepare citizens to tolerate adversity; or that education, while adapting to new technologies, should also address their misuse (fraud, identity theft or cyberbullying). Each chapter of the report concludes with possible but unexpected ways in which current trends may evolve.
