The 6th Southeast Asian Conference on Education (SEACE2026) and the inaugural Southeast Asian Conference on Arts & Humanities (SEACAH2026) were held from February 05-09, 2026, at the Singapore EXPO, Singapore. 356 delegates, representing 238 institutions from 50 countries across the world, discussed the intersection of technology and human value, and their implications within the education and cultural aspects.
The conferences addressed the core discourse of the risks and opportunities of integrating Artificial Intelligence in Education, and provided examples of good practices in transforming AI from a potential shortcut into collaborative learning partners. It is suggested that institutions should move beyond outdated policies and static prohibitions, as well as advocate for educators to evolve into active facilitators who cultivate AI literacy and evaluate the entire learning journey rather than just final products. Beyond the classroom, the conferences look into the impact of digital technology on cultural preservation, examining how virtual platforms and digital diplomacy both democratise access to heritage and introduce ethical questions about shared memory. The report also offers insights into the strategic management of international educational networks, emphasising that authentic interdisciplinary and intercultural engagement are crucial for building resilient careers in this modern, technological-driven society.
