EFE-UAE has launched the 2026 AJYAL Program at AURAK in Ras Al Khaimah, training more than 200 university students in AI, sustainability and job-readiness skills. The program prepares students for a job market shaped by AI and green industries.

India has installed its first algae tree in Bhopal, a solar-powered device that captures carbon dioxide using living algae. One unit works like 25 full-grown trees and is built for crowded roadsides where planting real trees is hard.

A new national platform is connecting UAE university students with real workplace training. More than 1,000 students have registered, 414 are already in placements, and 54 universities and 45 companies have joined to bridge the gap between campus and career.

Dubai's young engineers stood out at the 2025 ADNOC Yas in Schools National Finals, where more than 1,400 students from 113 schools built and raced model cars. Teams from Jumeirah College, Dubai College and Royal Grammar School Guildford Dubai took home national titles.

Decarbonizing cement — one of the world's most carbon-intensive industries — may be far more affordable than previously thought. New research from Stanford finds that with the right combination of technologies, cement producers could cut emissions by up to 96% with only a 12% rise in production costs, challenging long-held assumptions that going green would price consumers out of the market.

Cement production is responsible for roughly 7.5% of global CO2 emissions — and Stanford researchers want to change that. A new project from Stanford's Sustainability Accelerator is rethinking how cement is made from the ground up, using electrified heating, recycled concrete waste instead of limestone, and advanced thermal processes to slash carbon emissions at scale.

A ring that replaces your computer mouse just got funded on Kickstarter in nine minutes. The Prolo Ring weighs just 5 grams, fits on the index finger, and uses a thumb-operated trackpad plus 40+ programmable air gestures to give you full cursor control — no buttons, no wrist strain, and no software required. Starting at $99 for early backers, it could ship as soon as December.

Smart glasses are selling fast — but the privacy concerns are mounting just as quickly. Meta's Ray-Bans, which make up over 80% of AI glasses sales, are increasingly being used to secretly record people in public without their knowledge. With Apple, Google, and Snap all preparing their own versions, and potentially 100 million pairs in circulation within years, experts warn the technology poses serious risks to everyday privacy that current laws are ill-equipped to handle.

Dubai's first smart bus station opened May 10 near Mall of the Emirates, connected directly to the Metro Red Line. The RTA-unveiled station features real-time digital displays, smart kiosks, Nol card top-up machines, and AI-powered safety cameras — serving 11 bus routes across the city.
