Context

Moldova's Ministry of Education and Research, working with UNICEF Moldova, developed and launched a free course described as taking students 'from prompts to simple applications,' aimed at middle- and high-school students and open to any interested learner.

Activities

The course introduces students to practical use of generative AI tools, from writing effective prompts through to building simple applications. Moldova has also begun sending teachers to South Korea under the KLIC 2026 programme to build digital and AI teaching competencies, and the course is framed as a foundational step within Moldova's 2026-2030 national AI strategy, which anticipates AI literacy, digital ethics and media literacy content from primary school onward starting 2027.
