Thank you, Kristina Ishmael and Anil Hurkadli, for an insightful and highly engaging workshop. The discussion on moving from learning and cognition to reactive AI rules toward strategic, learning-centred policy and institutional readiness was particularly valuable, especially from the perspective of developing countries. I greatly appreciate the practical insights and global perspectives shared during the session. I look forward to exploring opportunities for future collaboration, particularly around establishing an AI Policy Lab in Pakistan and potentially at the regional level, bringing together universities, policymakers, industry, and other stakeholders to advance responsible, inclusive, and learning-centred AI policy and practice.

It was indeed a though provoking session. I would also love to get in touch with the Policy lab point of contact for India to continue the conversation we started today.

I'm sorry that I missed the session! Was it recorded by chance? Maybe a transcript? Thanks much!
