Milestones

Ensuring thriving digital futures in the era of AI must be grounded in a sound human and ethical foundation. Teachers are not only educators—they are role models, critical mediators, and essential guides. We hold the key to ensuring that AI in education fosters equity, critical thinking, and ethical reflection. Our vision is rooted in a belief that teachers must be supported, not overwhelmed, by AI. They should be empowered to leverage AI’s benefits, while remaining vigilant about its risks. To support this transformation, we have aligned our work with UNESCO’s AI Competency Framework for Teachers (2024), and established concrete goals to guide our progress and measure our impact.
