The deep insights of UNESCO, as presented in the State of Education Report (SOER) published by UNESCO’s office in New Delhi, are a testament to their commitment to driving positive educational reforms.
“The UNESCO office in New Delhi produces our flagship report on education-related issues in India, such as artificial intelligence in education, technical and vocational training, climate education, and more,” explains Joyce Poan, Program Specialist and Head of the Education Sector at UNESCO’s office in New Delhi. “We collaborate with Vantage on the topic of artificial intelligence and education. These reports are valuable for policymakers as they provide updated information and ten specific recommendations tailored for India.”
Vantage Foundation and UNESCO have joined forces to support educational initiatives in India, with a focus on leveraging the potential of artificial intelligence in education. These collaborative efforts aim to foster excellence in education and drive societal progress, inspiring the next generation to strive for greater achievements in India and globally.
As the education landscape evolves, the UNESCO office in New Delhi remains committed to producing future reports that address emerging needs and challenges.

India’s education system has been making strides in recent years, with efforts to improve access and quality being recognized both nationally and globally. The Vantage Foundation, an independent charitable organization, has highlighted the significant progress that India has made in enhancing learning outcomes. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has also played a crucial role in facilitating India’s transition towards a digitally empowered society.
One key trend in the Indian education system is the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. The collaboration between Vantage Foundation and UNESCO focuses on leveraging the potential of AI to enhance learning experiences and outcomes. This partnership aims to foster excellence in education and drive societal progress, inspiring the next generation to strive for greater achievements in India and globally.
In terms of forecasts, the use of AI in education is expected to continue growing in India. AI has the potential to personalize learning, provide adaptive support to students, and automate administrative tasks, thereby improving the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the education system. As technology advances, AI-powered educational tools and platforms are likely to become more prevalent, offering new opportunities for students and educators alike.
However, the integration of AI in education also comes with challenges and controversies. One key challenge is ensuring equitable access to AI-powered educational resources, particularly for students from disadvantaged backgrounds or remote areas. There is also a need to address concerns around data privacy and security when using AI in educational settings.
Despite these challenges, the collaboration between Vantage Foundation and UNESCO aims to address these issues through their research and initiatives. The State of Education Report (SOER) published by UNESCO’s office in New Delhi provides valuable insights and recommendations for policymakers to navigate the integration of AI in education.
In conclusion, India’s education system has made significant progress, and the collaboration between Vantage Foundation and UNESCO is contributing to the further enhancement of educational excellence. The integration of AI in education presents both opportunities and challenges, but with careful planning and implementation, it has the potential to transform learning experiences and outcomes in India.
