📌About the Event

The Birdspiracy AI Competition 2026 is an AI innovation competition designed primarily for students in Classes 9–12. Participants are challenged to identify a real problem in their school, neighbourhood, town, or community and propose a practical solution using artificial intelligence. The focus is not on coding but on problem-solving, understanding how AI can create impact, feasibility, research, and clear presentation of ideas. The competition is built for students in India but also accepts entries from students in other countries.
