EU AI Code of Practice Plenary and Working Groups - Sept 2024-April 2025

Participant in the multi-stakeholder Plenary to support the work of the European AI Office in drawing up the first General-Purpose AI Code of Conduct

I am a member of several European Union Education Area Working Groups. Together with colleagues in education, policy and EdTech from across Europe, I undertake research and support the European Commission with insight and recommendations in critical areas related to the future of education.

Working Group - Futuring, 2024 (current): The purpose of this Working Group is to explore and investigate multiple futures of digital education. 

Working Group - Hybrid Learning Spheres, 2024: The purpose of this Working Group was to provide an original online platform with resources, guidance and insight related to hybrid learning practices, available to education colleagues and other education ecosystem stakeholders across Europe and beyond.

Working Group - Sustainability and Digital Education, 2024: The purpose of this Working Group was to explore how to bring together digital technologies in education and sustainability to create relevant and enhanced learning experiences with a reduce environmental footprint. 

Working Group - Digital Skills, 2023: The purpose of this Working Group was to explore how to bridge the digital skills gap within EU member states and advise the EU Commission on how to assist EU member states with digital skills development.

Due to my expertise, I have the opportunity to write reports and insights papers that are published by the EU. Current research reports that I am working on include:

European Digital Education Area: Fluid Hybrid Learning Spheres

European Digital Skills and Jobs Platform: Ethics in AI: A high-stake game, but at what cost? 

EU Workshops and Knowledge Events

As part of my engagement with EU Working Groups, I present at EU-organised workshops and collaborate with colleagues across the EU in driving innovative practices for digital education and learning:

​EU Workshop on Digital Skills, Brussels, Sept 2023: I presented the findings from the Digital Skills Squad report.

EU Workshop on Digital & Sustainability, Paris, Feb 2024: I was part of the organising committee and also presented findings from the Squad’s Digital Education & Sustainability report.

Taking part in these gatherings gives me the opportunity to work with colleagues from multidisciplinary backgrounds to deliver specific recommendations to be considered by the EU Commission.

Industry Engagement

Over the years, I have built a vast network of industry professionals from large global organisations, the public sector, entrepreneurial ventures, and third sector organisations. 

To help drive student learning and application to real-world business scenarios, I co-create sessions, activities, challenges and learning experiences with industry professionals. 

Below is a selection of the industry-academic events and collaborations I have initiated over the last few years.
