PRISM
Project
Promoting Responsible, Inclusive and Sustainable AI Management in HEIs
PRISM supports responsible AI adoption in European higher education by integrating environmental responsibility, social fairness and economic viability into institutional governance, teaching and student learning. It develops a Sustainable AI Decision Framework, a practitioner playbook with scenarios and assessment tools, and interactive learning pathways that build critical AI literacy through microlearning and practical challenges. Resources are co-created and tested with institutional leaders, at least 80 educators and professional staff, and over 500 students across diverse contexts, including war-affected Ukraine. Open, multilingual materials, institutional case studies and European Digital Credentials support educational use, while dissemination and policy engagement promote wider adoption and integration into institutional quality assurance.
ACEEU's Role: Quality Assurance and Institutional Adoption
ACEEU leads quality assurance, progress monitoring and impact evaluation in close cooperation with the coordinator. It combines quantitative indicators, partner feedback and stakeholder consultation to assess implementation and results, identify improvements and support shared learning. Drawing on its accreditation expertise, ACEEU helps translate sustainable AI principles into practical guidance aligned with institutional quality frameworks. It co-leads the development of educator guidance, coordinates validation with institutional decision-makers and educators, and supports the integration of student learning resources into courses. Its higher education networks provide channels for consultation, dissemination and wider adoption. ACEEU also supports long-term use by integrating sustainable AI assessment criteria into accreditation guidance and institutional quality assurance approaches.
