Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rapidly growing field that is revolutionizing industries and changing the way we live and work. AI has the potential to bring about significant economic and social benefits, but it also poses challenges and risks that need to be addressed. JA Europe is already taking a next step to reshape education by creating a merged curricula; to integrate AI into our entrepreneurship education programme to help young people become more aware of its potential and limitations.
The Erasmus+ Forward Looking Cooperation Project is a collaboration between Junior Achievement Europe and a consortium of 10 partners from the research, large-enterprise, schools, and Junior Achievement organisations. Our goal is to equip young people with the necessary skills to navigate the digital world and prepare them for the future of work. The consortium members have diverse expertise and experience in AI, education, and entrepreneurship. Through this collaboration, we will develop and test new AI curricula that will be integrated into the Junior Achievement entrepreneurship education programme. The curricula will cover a range of topics, including AI basics, ethics, and its applications in various industries and will be launched in January 2024 in Spain, in Portugal and in Italy.
