DESCRIPTION:Amid ongoing armed conflicts\, climate change\, forced displace
 ment\, and other prolonged crises\, nearly a quarter of a billion children
 —an increase of 35 million over the past three years—are deprived of a
 ccess to quality education.\n\nAs the global community seeks innovative so
 lutions to address these complex challenges\, the responsible use of artif
 icial intelligence (AI) presents a promising opportunity to support the le
 arning needs of children in crisis by expanding access\, personalizing ins
 truction\, and strengthening educational systems in even the most fragile 
 contexts. Multiple initiatives have sought to use generative AI for good i
 n crisis contexts. AI-powered platforms have the potential to shift how le
 arning happens\, including by providing tailored learning experiences and 
 assisting in synthesizing relevant learning materials.\n\nOn May 13\, the 
 Center for Universal Education will host a panel discussion on emerging st
 rategies for using AI in education in crisis contexts. Moderated by senior
  fellow and director Rebecca Winthrop\, the discussion will feature:\n\nJa
 mie Alexandre: Co-founder and co-executive director of Learning Equality\,
  a nonprofit dedicated to supporting children’s learning in the most mar
 ginalized contexts\nKrista Belen Rivas Gutierrez: Global leader in the Ter
 tiary Refugee Student Network\, a student led network that aims to increas
 e refugee self-reliance by connecting refugee learners and alumni at the l
 ocal\, national\, and global level\nMati Amin: Co-founder and CEO of SOLAx
 \, a WhatsApp based online academy where students can access daily\, async
 hronous class work in three languages\nViewers can submit questions by ema
