In this way, UNESCO is promoting a platform aimed at connecting evidence, innovation and public action so that the use of artificial intelligence helps strengthen education systems without deepening existing inequalities.<\/p>\n<p>The event is also envisaged as a space for coordination among Ministries of Education, universities, research centres, the technology sector, civil society and multilateral organizations. Its purpose is to encourage ongoing exchange between practice, innovation and public policy, as well as to mobilise concrete commitments from strategic partners around a shared roadmap for the period 2026\u20132029.<\/p>\n<p>The event will take place from 12 noon to 2.30 p.m. in the Celso Furtado conference room at ECLAC, located at 3477 Avenida Dag Hammarskj\u00f6ld, Vitacura, Santiago, Chile. It will include opening remarks by Esther Kuisch Laroche, Director of the UNESCO Regional Office in Santiago and Regional Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as a presentation of the Observatory by Valtencir Mendes, Head of Education at the Office.<\/p>\n<p>With this launch, UNESCO and its partners seek to position artificial intelligence in education as a priority for regional cooperation linked to the 2030 Agenda.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The initiative is being led by UNESCO together with regional and international partners including Development Bank of Latin&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5699,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[24,25,4977,2021,76,1172],"class_list":{"0":"post-5698","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ai","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-artificial-intelligence-ethics","11":"tag-artificial-intelligence-in-education","12":"tag-education","13":"tag-educational-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5698\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
