Hasnain Yousaf

Lecturer
Ali Institute of Education

Husnain is an educationist with a passion for leveraging Artificial Intelligence and Data Science to address the greatest challenges in education and society. He firmly believes that the impact of education on society cannot be overstated, as it serves as the driving force behind human development, equity, and social justice. Having grown up in a region that has struggled to develop its human capital, Husnain has deeply studied the root causes of underdevelopment, which often stem from deficiencies in holistic education. He observes that traditional education systems primarily focus on academic excellence while neglecting essential aspects such as values, ethics, and community building. With the rise of AI technologies, these issues are likely to worsen unless AI is integrated into curricula early on and the ethical use of AI is taught to younger generations.
