View WHSV Channel 3 Video: UVA students use AI to develop solutions to community challenges

Eligibility: High School Students (Juniors and Seniors); College Students (Undergraduate and Graduate); and Gap Year

The Contemplative Sciences Center is excited to collaborate with our partner CARE360 to pilot an innovative 8-day AI leadership program for young people, CARELab Incubator: Conscious AI. The program will be held at the University of Virginia's Rotunda, July 14-July 27, 2025. 

CARELab Incubator helps students cultivate ethical entrepreneurial skills utilizing AI. CARELab goes beyond AI proficiency, equiping students with the vision, empathy, and foresight to lead wisely—and with CARE. We don’t just teach students how to use AI—we show them why it matters. Graduates create solutions that are inclusive, regenerative, and aligned with long-term wellbeing.

Scholarships are available to UVA students. If interested, please indicate this on the registration form in the appropriate box or the comments section. Someone will follow up with you.
