Where

150 First Avenue, NY, NY
As planetary crises intensify - from accelerating climate change to mass biodiversity loss - we are increasingly recognizing the need to learn from the more-than-human intelligences of the natural world. At the same time, artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how knowledge is created, decisions are made, & futures are imagined. In this context, education can no longer be understood merely as preparation for an individual future. We must recognize it instead as practice for navigating a world of interwoven intelligences, & as a powerful driver of systemic change for both people & planet.
This session explores the role education can play in addressing our planetary crises, equipping students with the mindsets & skills to navigate - & help govern - a world where human & more-than-human interests intersect with rapidly advancing technologies.
This event brings together educators, innovators, & students to ask:
What knowledge & skills are essential in an age of planetary crisis & AI?
What innovative models & tools are shaping the future of education & learning?
What systemic barriers continue to hold back transformation in education?
Drawing on science-based diplomacy, digital learning, & systems thinking, participants will consider how schools & lifelong learning models can foster planetary stewards: citizens prepared not only to thrive within planetary boundaries, but also help restore balance between humanity, technology, & the living world.
