We were delighted to see our Founder & CEO, Elena Sinel, speak at the European Training Foundation (ETF) Club Meet-Up this July. The session, themed “AI for Inclusion and Well-Being”, focused on how AI education can create meaningful impact for young people — especially those from underrepresented backgrounds.
Host: European Training Foundation (ETF) Club ~ Turin, Italy
Guest speaker: Elena Sinel, Founder & CEO, Teens in AI
Date: 1 July 2025 at 13:00 BST (14:00 CET)
Format: Virtual Meet-Up from Italy
Theme: “AI for inclusion and well-being”
“From Inspiration to Impact: How Project-Based AI Learning Fuels Inclusion and Well-Being”
In her segment, Elena shared insights from our global hackathons and student programmes aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Drawing on real-world case studies and classroom-ready resources, she highlighted how project-based AI learning – such as our flagship International Women’s Day Techathon – equips young people to design ethical tech solutions while supporting mental well-being, inclusion, and purpose.
This session is part of the ETF’s ongoing mission to ensure young people are not only prepared for the future of work but are empowered to shape it.
