BEFORE YOU REGISTER

Common Questions

Do I need any prior AI or tech experience?

No. This session is designed for social sector leaders, not technologists. Krishna Kumar is known for making complex AI concepts immediately accessible and actionable. You’ll leave with practical tools you can use the next day, regardless of your current comfort level with technology.

What will I actually be able to do differently after this session?

You’ll walk away knowing how to write better prompts for real work tasks fundraising proposals, programme reports, stakeholder communication. You’ll also understand how AI agents and connector-based workflows can help your team automate repetitive tasks and free up time for higher-impact work.

How is this different from a general AI awareness talk?

This is a hands-on, use-case-driven session not a concept overview. Krishna brings 200+ Generative AI workshops and 50,000+ learners of experience. The session is built specifically around challenges social sector organisations face, with examples drawn from fundraising, M&E, programme management, and stakeholder engagement.

What is the session format and how long does it run?

This is a virtual session held over Zoom. The format includes a structured presentation, real-world demonstrations, and a live Q&A. Final duration will be confirmed closer to the date registrants will receive full details by email.

Is this a standalone session or part of a series?

You can attend as a standalone session no prior participation in the AI for Social Impact Learning Series is required. That said, each session builds on a shared foundation. If you’d like to go deeper on AI adoption, we encourage you to explore the full series and KCADT’s Digital Transformation Programme for Social Impact.
