ADAPT and UNESCO launch free AI‑climate programme for Transition Year pupils

A new national education initiative has been launched to help Transition Year students understand how artificial intelligence (AI) and climate change are reshaping their world.

The programme, created jointly by ADAPT and UNESCO, is offered free of charge and aims to link AI literacy with climate education for the first time in Ireland.

Students will explore the role that technology can play in building a more sustainable future, examining both the opportunities and challenges presented by AI in the context of environmental change.

The initiative is part of a broader effort to equip young people with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate a rapidly evolving digital and ecological landscape.
