​In this webinar, we will introduce core AI concepts and explore practical applications of AI in teaching and learning, research, and higher education institutional management, while also touching on key considerations such as ethics, governance, and skills for the future. Through youth perspectives and discussion, the session will also explore how students and early-career researchers can move beyond using AI tools to actively shaping and designing context-responsive AI solutions, in line with the objectives of the AI4EAC Innovation Challenge.
