AI in Education: Global Perspectives & Local Solutions
Bridging Technology and International Understanding in Educational Innovation

What’s this about?
This isn’t just another tech talk. We’re bringing together computer scientists, international affairs experts, educators, and students to dig into one big question:
How can AI transform education — not just in one country, but across cultures and continents?

You’ll hear from education technology specialists and policy experts, swap ideas with people from all over the world, and tackle hands-on challenges that explore both the possibilities and pitfalls of AI in the classroom.

Why come?
Because AI in education isn’t just about software and algorithms — it’s about ethics, culture, access, and making sure technology works for people, not the other way around. You’ll walk away with:

A global view of how AI is shaping schools and universities
Insights into cultural and ethical challenges in different regions
Practical skills for evaluating and implementing AI solutions
Connections with other curious, forward-thinking people

Who’s this for?

University students (local and international)
Educators and education professionals
Policy researchers
Anyone interested in the future of learning with AI
