The unstoppable advancement of AI, coupled with its ethical implications and the growing gap between industry and academia, has led to concerns regarding trust and underscores the need for comprehensive digital education. In response, TrustAI will develop specialized training programs for humanities students and educators, fostering the ethical and responsible integration of AI into educational practices. 

Project Objectives

The goal of TrustAI is to create prerequisites for HEI to act as a catalyst for the trustworthy and sustainable use of AI by designing a curriculum for the humanitarian fields and developing training resources and activities in AI designed in collaboration with the business to ensure that the future generation of graduated humanitarians and their HE lecturers are well equipped for the challenges posed by AI technologies in building AI skills based on ethics, trustworthiness, and sustainability.

Expected results

TrustAI stipulates the following results: 

  • TrustAI curriculum for HE students in humanitarian fields. 
  • TrustAI training incubator for HE lecturers in humanitarian fields. 
  • Sustainability and transferability roadmap.
