3rd Conference on AI and Education by the Council of Europe

We were very pleased to facilitate the 3rd Conference on AI and Education by our Council of Europe AI&ED Expert Group: In the year 2025, it was again at the impressive Council of Europe premises in Strasbourg. The conference theme was: “Ensuring Quality Education in the AI Era – Introducing the Council of Europe Compass for AI and Education”.

On 8th and 9th of October 2025, the Council of Europe Compass for AI and Education was officially launched. During the two full days, the conference participants discussed the latest developments of our AI&ED Expert Group in four sessions with interactive workshops.

In addition, keynotes informed about the current state-of-the-art and our key challenges for both international conventions: on education with AI and on education about AI.

Personally, I was happy to contribute to the conference success with my workshop moderations and to report the collaboration with the Council of Europe Committee on Human Rights and the planned new handbook on Ethical AI and Human Rights that will include a section on education.

We hope that our intensives exchanges will lead to a better AI regulation in education and will improve the education with safe AI use as well as the introduction of critical education about AI into the national and regional curricula of all 46 member states and beyond.
