                Abstract
                The talk gives an overview of the Education for Life in the 21st Century Programme of the
                Fondazione Mondo Digitale (FMD), illustrating its reason and content. It addresses briefly the
                contextual aspects characterized by the continuous scientific-technological and socio-
                economic changes and their consequent impact on companies, jobs, and school education in
                terms of tools, environments, and pedagogical offer. This is followed by the description of the
                components of the FMD’s Education for Life Programme:
                (i) The Education for Life in the 21st Century Model (a person-centred, holistic educational
                      model);
                (ii) The Self-Entrepreneurship and Personal Ecosystem Approach (sustaining that the
                      objective of education in the 21st Century should be to equip people to become
                      entrepreneurs of themselves);
                (iii) The InnovationGym and Network of InnovationGyms (a multi-lab and activity
                      environment to realize the concepts of education for life and self-entrepreneurship); and
                (iv) The Inclusive Self-Entrepreneurship Accelerator (a practical programme integrating the
                      above aspects and focused on youngsters)
                The talk also presents an example of a project focused on combatting educational poverty. The
                holistic and flexible approach of the Education for Life Programme supports educational
                players in their understanding and practice of systemic educational innovation. In practice, the
                Programme is an integrated set of innovative aspects and, simultaneously, an approach to
                systemic innovation in the school world.
