Imagine the year is 2042.
Welcome to the Moodleverse, an augmented reality (AR) environment driven by web 3.0 technologies, including next generation software and human-wearable hardware.

The Moodleverse, augmented reality (AR) and wearables are all supported by OpenEdTech (OET) infrastructure. This is a global platform for educators, learners and organisations. It is 100% free and open source.

How many Moodle users do you think there will be in 2042? I believe there will be more than 2 billion users. Do you think it is possible?

UNESCO has 17 goals to transform our world. They are referred to as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

When I recently spoke to Moodle Founder & CEO, Martin Dougiamas, he told me:
“One of the seventeen SDGs is to ensure inclusive & equitable quality education & promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.
In fact that’s the most important one, because without that, we can’t achieve any of the other sixteen goals!”
Martin Dougiamas, Moodle Founder & CEO
Well guess what? In 2042, in partnership with UNESCO, Moodle achieves Sustainable Development Goal #4, Quality Education, by successfully delivering a Global Citizenship program. Topics include:
- Sustainable development
- Human rights
- Gender equality
- Cultural diversity
- Peace and non-violence

On our journey to 2042, how can you further contribute to the Moodle project? Find ways to get more actively involved in the Moodle Community. For example:
- Register on moodle.org
- Post a question (or answer) to a forum
- Join the Moodle Users Association (MUA)
- Quality Assurance testing
- Moodle Educator Certification
- Write a plugin
