The Life-Based Learning (LBL) paradigm offers a transformative approach to education, grounded in holistic principles that transcend traditional learning models. This paradigm is structured to align educational practices with the evolving needs of society, particularly in the face of the digital revolution, global integration, and rapid societal changes. Rooted in post-anthropocentrism and posthumanist spirituality, LBL emphasizes human dignity, sustainability, and the ongoing, lifelong process of learning. It emphasizes the development of learners as holistic individuals capable of adapting to various life situations and professions, fostering autonomy, creativity, and personal responsibility. LBL also integrates knowledge, experience, and skills across diverse learning environments, from formal educational settings to everyday life contexts such as work, social interactions, and family life. The paradigm supports flexible, self-directed learning, where students engage with various resources and contexts to achieve their personal and professional goals. Additionally, LBL is designed to address the challenges posed by rapid technological and cultural shifts, promoting resilience, ethical decision-making, and global awareness. By positioning learning as an ongoing process for all individuals, regardless of time or space, LBL ensures that education remains relevant and adaptable to future societal demands. This approach is aligned with the principles of lifelong learning, emphasizing the interconnectedness of knowledge, culture, and human development. © The Author(s) 2026.
