About This Event
Together 4 Youth and The Youth Impact Foundation are holding a Community of Practice session for members working across the youth wellbeing sector to consider practical AI use in internal operations and school-facing services.
The workshop examines how AI is affecting schools, providers and young people, including what good practice can look like, what to avoid, and tools participants can take back to their work.
Topics covered
- AI in students’ lives, including companionship, reliance, help-seeking and harmful content
- Emerging mental health effects and risks when using AI with young people
- Organisational readiness and lower-risk uses of AI that can free staff for relational work
- A staff-inclusive approach to introducing AI internally
- School-facing AI services that provide value schools cannot easily create themselves
Format and speaker
Expect a hands-on workshop with expert insight, peer exchange, table discussions and takeaway tools.
Roisin McNaney, Associate Professor in Digital Health at the University of Melbourne and Director of the CSIRO Next Generation Graduates Program in AI in Mental Health, will speak. Her work focuses on emerging technologies in brain and mental health, including AI, youth mental health and co-design.
