    To celebrate the International Girls in ICT 2026 Day theme, “AI for Development”, the AI for Good Global Summit will welcome 60 selected girls aged 8-12 for a unique day of discovery, creativity and inspiration at the intersection of AI and STEM. Participation in the activity will be based on prior registration through partner networks.

    Throughout the day, participants will rotate in groups through interactive AI workshops led by AddictLab, combined with engaging exchanges with women working in artificial intelligence, science and technology. Through hands-on activities and direct interaction with professionals, the programme aims to spark curiosity, build confidence in digital skills, and encourage girls to imagine themselves as future innovators and leaders shaping the digital future.

    The activity will open with remarks from senior leadership from the International Telecommunication Union, the UK Government (co-organizers) and partner organizations, highlighting the importance of empowering the next generation of girls in technology.

    Hosted within the AI for Good Global Summit, the initiative will also showcase the International Girls in ICT Day movement to a global audience of AI leaders, innovators and decision-makers.
