UNU Macau is proud to convene the UNU Macau AI Conference 2026, taking place from 25 to 26 November 2026 in Macau SAR, China. This year’s event centers on the theme, "AI × Education: AI for Learning, Learning for AI."
Pillar 1: UNU Macau AI Conference 2026
The conference will host a series of curated, multi-stakeholder panel sessions addressing the most critical dimensions of our overarching theme. Through these high-level dialogues and strategic networking opportunities, the conference promises transformative outcomes, bridging geographic and institutional divides to champion an inclusive, equitable, and AI-literate digital future for all.
Pillar 2: AI for SDGs - Global Youth AI Future Innovation Competition 2026
The Competition is a premier initiative launched by the UNU Global AI Network. It aims to leverage artificial intelligence technology to address sustainable development challenges while fostering social innovation and global youth development. The 2026 Competition, themed "AI and Education," addresses a defining challenge of our time: how artificial intelligence is transforming the landscape of learning, teaching, and human development.
Pillar 3: AI × Education Workshops and Training
The AI × Education Workshops and Training sessions translate our core thematic panels into practical, immersive learning experiences. Moving beyond conceptual dialogue, each workshop is strategically engineered to empower global participants to bridge the gap between discussion and application, equipping them with the tangible tools, methodologies, and frameworks necessary for real-world institutional implementation.
