Millennium Fellowship Project: AI Ignite: Empowering through Education

Our initiative is referred to as "AI Ignite: Empowering through Education." it intends to connect new technology with young people. We wish to teach high school students the basis of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) because those areas are very important in many professions nowadays. Therefore, we want to make these technologies clear and show their practical application by giving an idea of how they can be used for solving real-life problems. The knowledge of AI and ML does not only apply when pursuing tech careers but also equips one with foundational skills applicable in almost every sector including healthcare or environmental science. By commencing with mathematics that forms the foundation of these systems, we expect that all learners will find this subject interesting irrespective of their backgrounds. What sets us apart from other programs is our hands-on approach and commitment towards building a community around curiosity which in turn breeds future innovators. More than being just another educational venture, it represents a critical step towards creating awareness among young people about technology use while arming them with necessary skills needed to engage thoughtfully and responsibly thereby making the world better.
