Webinar: From challenge to upgrade — behind the scenes with education ministries using AI to improve delivery

When people think of AI in education, they picture chatbots and classrooms. But is the real revolution happening inside ministries? Join the EdTech Hub’s AI Observatory as we kick off the Ministries of Education AI Challenge. We’ll introduce the 6 countries taking part in the Challenge and hear directly from ministry teams about the concrete problems they’re tackling and the AI-enabled upgrades they’ll test this year. If you care about real improvements in service delivery – from data use to resource allocation – this hour will help you separate signal from hype and get involved where it matters.

Learn more about the Ministry of Education AI Challenge
Ministries of Education aren’t turning to AI because it’s trendy—they see it as a tool to fix real challenges in service delivery. If ministries and district officials are equipped to use AI effectively, they can deliver more with less, faster. Through our AI Observatory’s Ministry of Education AI Challenge we’re exploring:
- does investing in AI for service delivery actually work?
- where does AI have greater or lesser impact?
- which services should we prioritise and how can we unlock momentum within Ministries to make it happen?
