Previous industrial revolutions have transformed the socio-economic structure of society. As occurred with the previous revolutions, the Fourth Industrial Revolution will gradually change the role of humans in the economy and society. The mainstreaming of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the progress in the field of robotics will create new technologies fusing physical, digital and biological worlds, impacting all disciplines.
In discontinuity with the previous revolutions, the impact would not be confined to a specific productive sector, but conversely, it will affect all sectors, including the service industry. The Fourth Industrial Revolution will impact the employability of future generations, creating new opportunities and novel dividing lines. The reorganization of the labour market will primarily affect the employability of individuals from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds. The job figures most at risk are those in which the tasks allocated to the labour force are related to routinary, repetitive and predictable actions. In the upcoming socio-economic scenario, a share of the labour force would not be able to compete with the robots and software.

In the wake of the 4th Industrial Revolution, policymakers and education providers need to re-think education vis-a-vis the mutation occurring in society and the labour market. Educators, psychologists – and experts in social sciences – should play a central role in assisting policymakers in transforming the challenges of AI, robotics and learning technologies into opportunities.
The Erasmus+ EDUREFORM project invites researchers to present quantitative/qualitative studies, theoretical/conceptual elaborations, and case studies offering innovative perspectives on education at the time of the 4th Industrial Revolution.
