The Lyceum Project 2025 and the Young Scholars' Panel: Call for talks
The Lyceum Project is committed to being a Global AI Forum that fosters inclusive, multi-stakeholder dialogues and cooperation on AI governance. It fulfills the convening function of the Flagship Program 6 in Greece’s AI Transformation Blueprint and serves as the venue for an annual high-level global meeting on AI ethics and policy. The Lyceum Project welcomes globally recognized panelists with the support of academic, industrial, and other stakeholders.
The Lyceum Project 2025 is organized by the National Center for Scientific Research “Demokritos,” the World Human Forum, the Special Secretariat of Foresight in the Presidency of the Greek Government, and the Athens Conservatory. CHS is the affiliate of The Lyceum Project 2025, organizing and funding sessions such as the Young Scholars session and contributing to the planning and organization processes of other academic aspects of the event.
This year, The Lyceum Project focuses on the critical issue of preparing children to flourish in the age of AI, equipping them not only with digital tools but also with education that fosters their development as active, informed citizens. The forum titled “Children in the Age of AI” will take place on June 20, 2025, at the Athens Conservatory, and it is open to the public. Its discussions will revolve around Human Nature and AI, AI as Intelligent Tools, and Policy and Governance. The event will begin with a morning session featuring presentations by young scholars on related topics, followed by an afternoon session with panels on AI and Education, AI Design, and AI Governance.

The Lyceum Project invites young scholars (PhD students or those within seven years of their PhD) to submit a 500-word abstract for a 15-minute talk related to this year’s theme of “Children in the Age of AI” including, but not limited to, the aforementioned topics.
