Using the Three Horizons framework, we track what’s beginning to upgrade existing systems, what may soon disrupt the status quo, and what…
Each week, we sift through the noise to spotlight early signals of change in AI and education. We track what’s happening now—and what it could mean for the future of learning in the Global South. Through this, we hope you can anticipate where change might be headed, and help steer it toward equitable learning outcomes in the age of AI.…
Three bright spots in AI and education today and what it could mean for the future AI is transforming education, and every day we are seeing more use cases emerging across the Global South. How can we ensure that, as we explore the possibilities of AI in education, its role remains both inclusive and equitable? Let’s look at some interesting…
Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming the education sector and reshaping how development partners engage with it. To ensure AI supports—not undermines—efforts to address the global learning crisis, education funders need more than awareness of new tools. They need a deeper understanding of the AI evidence landscape, practical experience integrating AI in real-world education systems, and the capacity to engage confidently…
