The Chandigarh University hosted the 5th Global Education Summit (GES-2025), drawing 75 academic leaders from 60 universities across 35 countries to discuss how higher education can adapt to a rapidly changing world. The two-day event focused on building AI-empowered, inclusive, sustainable, and technology-driven nations.
Juan Antonio March Pujol, Ambassador of Spain to India, emphasised that AI should be seen as an opportunity, not a threat. “AI opens new fields and careers. The key is knowing your capacities and delivering what others need, fostering innovation and solutions that benefit humanity. But innovation must go hand in hand with peace. The younger generation must be the lobby for peace, not war, while universities nurture talent and innovation,” he said.
