Digital Learning Week 2026 - Call for proposals

Presentation proposal form

UNESCO is hosting the fourth edition of Digital Learning Week from 8 to 11 September 2026 at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris.

As a platform for open dialogue, knowledge exchange and forging communities of practice, UNESCO invites proposals that can advance the global conversation on education in the age of AI.

Submissions should be grounded in concrete, implemented work and evidence-based insights. They should draw on original research, evaluations and published scholarly work; innovative teaching practices or tools in use; technological and pedagogical innovations; implemented institutional or system policies; frameworks and programmes related to AI in education. Initiatives at the conceptual or early stage of piloting will not be accepted.
