The impact of international labor migration on the demographic dividend and development outcomes in low- and middle-income countries. 

International labor migration, economic development, and the demographic dividend are key components of development impacting low- and middle-income countries. This webinar will discuss the relationship among these factors that may be used by policymakers, development agencies, NGOs, and other stakeholders to create a more resilient and inclusive future for labor migration. This event will outline the conditions necessary to take advantage of the demographic dividend and describe the roles that international labor migration can play in maximizing gains such as workforce development, remittances, investments, and technology transfer. This webinar is hosted by the National Academies’ Societal Experts Action Network in collaboration with the Committee on Population.

Bridging the AI Trust Gap

Among many faculty members, a prevalent distrust of AI persists — and for valid reasons. How will it impact in-class instruction? What does the popularity of generative AI tools portend for the development of critical thinking skills for Gen-Z students? How can institutions, at the administrative level, develop policies to safeguard against students using these technologies as tools for cheating? Given this increasing ‘trust gap,’ how can faculty and administrators work together to preserve academic integrity as AI seeps into all areas of academia, from research to the classroom?  Join us for “Bridging the AI Trust Gap,” an extended, 75-minute Virtual Forum exploring the trust gap on campus about AI, the contours of the differences, and what should be done about it. With Support From AWS.
