The Rotary Club of Makati’s AI Academy is a pioneering initiative that equips underprivileged Filipino youth with Artificial Intelligence and data science skills, preparing them for meaningful careers in a digital future. Built on three pillars—Education, Empowerment, Employment—the program provides technical training, mentorship, and pathways to jobs, addressing both inequality and youth unemployment. As Rotary’s first AI-focused project in Southeast Asia, it blends innovation with service, introducing tools like ChatGPT and DALL·E alongside ethical practices. Sustained by RC Makati’s funding and partnerships with KadaKareer, Sisters of Mary, DICT, and industry leaders, the Academy exemplifies Rotary’s values and collaborative spirit.
