Building India's digital generation
India is home to one of the world's largest and youngest student populations. As artificial intelligence transforms every industry, every learner deserves the opportunity to understand how AI works — not just how to use it.
CodeAI India combines globally proven curriculum with locally relevant implementation, working alongside educators, governments, nonprofits, and ecosystem partners to make AI education accessible, inclusive, and meaningful for learners across the country.
Aligned with India's National Education Policy (NEP 2020) and the vision of a self-reliant, digitally empowered nation, CodeAI India is committed to creating equitable, scalable, and meaningful access to the skills of tomorrow.
Backed by global expertise. Built for India.
Our vision for India
Every student in every school gets the access and opportunity to learn CS and AI as a part of their core K-12 education.
Our scaffolded approach to CS-AI education
AI Awareness
Hour of AI campaign
A nationwide movement that introduces AI in engaging one-hour experiences. An accessible entry point for any school, with minimal infrastructure.
- What AI is, and what it is not
- How AI learns from data
- How it predicts and decides
- Bias, fairness, and ethical use
AI Fluency
Curriculum on the CodeAI platform
Enable students to build strong computer science and AI foundations through hands-on, concept-first learning experiences that encourage creativity, problem-solving, and responsible innovation.
- AI for Farmers: mobile-based
- How AI Makes Decisions: web-based
- Foundations of Generational AI: mobile-based
- Problem Solving with AI: mobile-based

AI Application
Hackathons and student showcase
Students move from passive users to creative problem-solvers and responsible innovators, alone or in teams.
- Identify a local challenge
- Prototype an AI-enabled solution
- Test the idea in the real world
- Present to peers and experts
Our approach
Partnership Driven
We collaborate with governments, nonprofits, educators and ecosystem partners to expand equitable access to computer science and AI education. Together, we combine global expertise with local implementation to create meaningful learning opportunities for students across diverse contexts.
Learner-Centered
Our learning experiences are designed to be engaging, accessible, and inclusive — helping students build confidence, curiosity, and critical thinking about AI.
Empowering Educators
Teachers are at the heart of meaningful learning. We invest in educator capacity through practical resources, professional learning, and ongoing support that enables confident classroom implementation.
Built for India
We adapt globally developed curriculum and resources for India's diverse educational landscape through localized content, multilingual resources, and implementation models that respond to different learner needs.
Initiatives driving change
From classrooms to campuses — here's where our work comes to life.
Hour of AI
One hour can spark a lifetime of curiosity.
Hour of AI is CodeAI's global initiative that introduces students and educators to the exciting world of artificial intelligence through engaging, beginner-friendly learning experiences. Through interactive activities, learners explore what AI is, how it works, where they encounter it in everyday life, and how it can be used responsibly to solve real-world problems.
Whether delivered in classrooms, community programmes, or independent learning environments, Hour of AI helps learners take their first step into understanding and creating with AI.
Defining digital fluency for every student
- Understands how AI works, not just how to use it
- Questions what AI produces, not accepting it blindly
- Creates with AI, building, imagining, and solving real problems with it
Campus Ambassador Program
A year-long, student-led movement bringing digital fluency to campuses across India.
The Campus Ambassador Program (CAP) is CodeAI India's year- long, student-led movement for digital fluency. Handpicked student leaders — Campus Ambassadors — bring Hour of AI directly to their own institutions, helping peers across every stream understand how AI works, direct it toward real problems, question its outputs, and create with it, not just use it.
Open to graduate colleges, junior colleges, ITIs, design institutes, and liberal arts campuses nationwide, CAP also brings faculty into the fold through a dedicated Teacher Track. Over the course of a year, the goal is to move students from simply attending HoAI activities to genuinely understanding core AI concepts — building the campus-level momentum that leads institutions to adopt AI literacy into their own curriculum.
In return, Ambassadors earn
- Stackable digital credentials
- Mentorship from AI industry leaders
- An opportunity at a CodeAI internship
Real people. Real work.
Stories from teachers, partners, and communities we work with across India.
“Today in class we learned how AI learns and how we can teach AI. We discussed that throwing waste into the sea and rivers is harmful. It is a wrong practice because it makes fish and other aquatic animals sick, and it pollutes the water in the oceans and rivers. I also learned that AI learns like a child. If we teach AI properly, it learns correctly. However, if we provide it with incorrect information or fail to guide it properly, it can also learn the wrong things.”
Laxmi Goyal
Student, Foundation for Innovation & Action Rajasthan
“The Hour of AI activity on CodeAI was a new and wonderful experience for me. Initially, I didn't know much about what AI actually is; but while doing the activity, I understood many new things about AI. Since I got to try the activities myself, I understood the topic quickly. This program increased my curiosity about technology and AI. I would definitely love to do such activities in the future as well.”
Aasiya Mujawar
Student, Leadership for Equity Maharashtra
“CodeAI and Enpower taught AI to students of our school and the students and trained them. Through gamified version, students learnt how to give prompts/commands to AI and does it work. Because of this, it became easy for the children to understand and there is need for such more sessions. Now because of gamified versions, the children are learning while playing. Thankful to CodeAI and Enpower for such a wonderful initiative.”
