🌐 No te pierdas este encuentro: «Equidad en el conocimiento e IA: ecosistemas colaborativos y soberanía informacional en la adopción de la IA generativa».

A medida que la IA generativa adquiere un papel más central en la creación de conocimiento, esta sesión reúne a destacadas voces de América Latina y Europa para explorar la equidad en el conocimiento, la soberanía informacional, la representación lingüística y la adopción responsable de la IA en la educación y la investigación.

Juntos, reflexionaremos sobre cómo las instituciones, el profesorado y los responsables de políticas públicas pueden construir futuros impulsados por la IA que sean transparentes, inclusivos y arraigados en las necesidades y los sistemas de conocimiento locales.

Join CCCOER for a thoughtful, learning-centered session: "Open Education as Resilience: Sumud and Higher Education in Palestine."

Educators Aida Mohammad Bakeer (Al-Quds Open University) and Saida Affouneh (An-Najah National University) explore how sumud — often translated as steadfastness — shapes educational practice, and how open and virtual approaches help students stay connected to learning.

🌐 Don't miss this conversation: "Knowledge Equity & AI: Collaborative Ecosystems and Informational Sovereignty in the Adoption of Generative AI." (in Spanish)

As generative AI takes on a more central role in how knowledge is created, this session brings together leading voices from Latin America and Europe to explore equity in knowledge, informational sovereignty, linguistic representation, and the responsible adoption of AI in education and research.

Together, we'll ask how institutions, educators, and policymakers can build AI-driven futures that are transparent, inclusive, and rooted in local needs and knowledge systems.

The relationships built at OEGlobal conferences don't end when the closing session wraps up.

"I had opportunities to meet with colleagues with whom I've remotely worked for YEARS, so being able to meet them in person has been surreal and amazing," shared an attendee.

"I loved sitting down at lunch on the last day, and someone goes, 'we want to start an instructional design community of practice,' and universally everyone at the table said, 'YES! We're in!' It was such a creative and energetic moment that showed me that we are a collective of people who have similar goals and aspirations," shared an attendee.
Connections made at OEGlobal 2026 continue on OEGlobal Connect — our community platform — so the collaborations forged this October stay active through the year and beyond.
