The higher education landscape is undergoing a profound transformation, propelled by the rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The journey of embedding AI into the educational continuum, from induction through to teaching, learning, and student outcomes, necessitates a thoughtful exploration of its pedagogical, ethical, and disciplinary dimensions: 

  • How can we align the use of AI with the core values, objectives, and standards of higher education within the MENA context? 
  • What measures can be taken to harmonise AI's advantages with its potential risks and challenges in this unique regional setting? 
  • How can we cultivate a responsible and inclusive AI usage culture in the MENA educational sector? 
  • How can AI be leveraged to make impactful advancements in teaching and learning methodologies in this diverse cultural landscape?
