UNESCO would like to especially thank the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Profuturo Foundation and Skillogs for acting as partners in Mobile Learning Week 2019, and extend sincere gratitude to the speakers and participants from across the globe, comprised of representatives of international organizations, government officials, academic experts and industry practitioners in the field of ICT in education.
During the five-day event for Mobile Learning Week 2019, UNESCO gathered participants from around the world to share experiences, initiatives and plan joint actions with a view to harnessing artificial intelligence (AI) to achieve Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4. The report stems from the work that the speakers presented and the insights that all the participants shared at the event.Supported byIn partnership withSponsored byAI-Powered learningCommitted to education.Committed to education.
