FAST (Foundation for Armenian Science and Technology) will showcase Armenia’s groundbreaking “Generation AI” High School Project during the Paris Digital Learning Week at UNESCO Headquarters, from September 2 to 5.
This ambitious initiative is reshaping math and programming education across Armenian public schools, aiming to cultivate a new generation of AI specialists. By integrating cutting-edge AI curricula into the national education system, the project aspires to equip students not only with advanced AI skills but also with the critical thinking, problem-solving, and digital literacy needed for the 21st-century workforce.
Suzanna Shamakhyan, representing FAST, will highlight how this collaborative effort with the Armenian Ministry of Education is empowering students with future-ready competencies. Her presentation will shed light on the broader implications of merging education and technology to meet the evolving demands of AI-driven industries.
This moment is pivotal for Armenia, as the Generation AI project will be discussed among leading global experts, educators, and policymakers, placing Armenia at the forefront of educational innovation and industry alignment on the world stage.
The Generation AI High School Project is a comprehensive, multi-year educational initiative launched by FAST in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture, and Sports of the Republic of Armenia, alongside industry partners. The program aims to establish a robust educational and career pathway for future AI researchers and innovators, beginning at the high school level. Currently implemented in seven regions and 15 schools across Armenia, the project engages around 500 students. By 2026, the program is expected to reach over 80% of public school students nationwide.
