Egypt (Kemet)-Bound Young Robotics Fellowship Award
Ajna Shakur-El FIRST-EVER RECIPIENT!
Ajna Shakur-El, age 14, and a member of a FIRST® FTC (FIRST Tech Challenge) robotics team in Chicago, has been selected as the inaugural delegate for the CERAIN Egypt (Kemet)-Bound Young Robotics Fellowship Award. This unique educational program is designed to broaden the horizons of young STEM scholars in the US through direct cultural, and technical exchange. The delegation aims to foster a global perspective on Al, robotics, and emerging technologies by connecting young innovators across continents. During her time in Egypt, Ajna will undertake an itinerary rich in both historical context, and future-facing technological collaboration:
• Historical Context of Innovation: Ajna will visit Egypt's most iconic sites of ancient engineering, and knowledge, including the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Library of Alexandria, the Heliopolis district, and the Step Pyramid of Imhotep at Saggara. These visits will provide a foundational appreciation for human ingenuity, which is central to her work in modern robotics.

Our Mission
Our team is a dedicated group of experienced scientists, engineers, and developers who share an unwavering passion for technology and innovation with a purpose. We firmly believe in responsible progress and are committed to ensuring that our advancements are driven not solely by financial gain, but by a profound sense of responsibility
Our team is a dedicated group of experienced scientists, engineers, and developers who share an unwavering passion for technology and innovation with a purpose. We firmly believe in responsible progress and are committed to ensuring that our advancements are driven not solely by financial gain, but by a profound sense of responsibility towards safety, ethics, and the well-being of society. Our membership is also comprised of "non-tech" individuals, who are just concerned about the future, and seek to help with our mission in any way possible. They help by spreading the word, and sparking the conversations & debates on the subject of science & technology going down the wrong path. These concerned individuals hold meetings, programs, speak on social media, or just have regular, informal conversations about the subject of ethics in science & technology, this is all while they simultaneously become more & more familiar with it. Some even go on to becoming scientists, engineers, coders or developers themselves.

The Center for Ethical Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, & Nanotechnology is a non-profit organization that advocates for ethical research, development, and use of robotics, artificial intelligence, and nanotechnology. We develop policy, and tangible constraints that serve to institute checks, and balances on such technologies, as well as other areas of science, and technology. We also have a private K-12 school and adult learning center which we focus on preparing the youth and adults for the high tech future that our society is rapidly moving towards at lightning speed by teaching them STEM subjects such as robotics, AI, 3D Printing and more.
Help for Homeless & Asylum-Seekers
Along with donations of blankets, water, clothing, food, rides to the doctor, legal aid, and help with documents; we help our citizen homeless population, and migrant asylum-seekers from Venezuela & other countries by giving them the opportunity to learn these STEM subjects, as well as teaching them English & strategies for entrepreneurship and career success, as well as seeking to become a sponsor for several well-vetted asylum-seekers.
