We are proud of our successes, most recently Dublin Learning City PATH project received the UNESCO Award for 2021 at the Annual Conference on Learning Cities in Korea, where Dublin was designated as a Learning City. The award recognises the significant work that Dublin Learning City project has made to create an inclusive learning environment and promote lifelong learning for all. Dublin Learning City was established as part of the PATH 3 collaboration of six universities. We also collaborate with several other organisations as part of Dublin Learning City such as Dublin City Council, City of Dublin Education and Training Board(CDETB) and Dublin Dun Laoghaire Education and Training Board (DDLETB).
