Solidarity as the Future of Education: Perspectives From the Ibero-American Experience of Service-Learning Year of publication: 2024 Author: Elena Massat Corporate author: UNESCO | Latin American Center for Service-Learning (CLAYSS) With this work we have proposed to put into dialogue the recent UNESCO document “Reimagining our futures together. A new social contract for education. Report of the international commission on the futures of education” with the theory and practice of service-learning in Ibero-America. We would like to show how UNESCO's proposal for education for the future can already be verified as a practice in many educational institutions in the region, which develop solidarity service-learning projects even in the most vulnerable contexts. In these experiences, solidarity ceases to be just learning content, to become an educational process, a pedagogy to learn to solve complex problems of reality, and to use the SDGs as a “curriculum” for the education of the future (UNESCO, 2022:54). These practices are deeply innovative, as the experts who comment on them point out, and we hope that they can be inspiring for many other educational institutions. 
How to Develop Solidarity Service-Learning Projects: Manual for Various Educational Levels and Non-formal Education Year of publication: 2024 Author: María Nieves Tapia Corporate author: Latin American Center for Service-Learning (CLAYSS) The publication presents the concept and practice of solidarity-based service-learning (SLL) focusing on its implementation in Uruguay from a Latin American perspective. With this approach, throughout its 88 pages it explores local applications and compares experiences from other regions, providing a broad and enriching view of this methodology. Solidarity-based service-learning is a recommended pedagogical strategy to face the educational challenges of the 21st century. According to the Delors report (1996), this methodology is aligned with the four pillars of education: learning to be, learning to learn, learning to do and learning to live together. The manual details how SLL projects can be a powerful tool for social change.
