Lifelong learning as a response to the challenges of Industry 5.0 within the context of Horizon 2030
Abstract
Lifelong learning is a key element to face the challenges of the fourth industrial revolution, or Industry 4.0, which involved digital transformation and the automation of production processes. In this context, the current fifth industrial revolution, or Industry 5.0, based on artificial intelligence (AI), requires a renewed focus on lifelong learning. The horizon of 2030 is an estimated date for achieving some of the objectives of this revolution: to improve competitiveness, innovation and social inclusion. This paper aims to deepen the understanding of lifelong learning and its strategic role in meeting the challenges of this new context of transition from Industry 4.0 to 5.0. To this end, a systematic literature review is carried out with a bibliometric analysis in Scopus and WOS on lifelong learning, Industry 5.0 and transformations in relation to work and education. The results show that continuing education is key to acquiring the necessary knowledge and skills, not only from an economic perspective, but above all as a means of promoting openness, tolerance, democracy and social inclusion. However, it is necessary to reflect on what the roadmap should be for adapting training processes to these emerging needs.
