The paper will present the AI-THOS project. The project focuses on fostering an Ethics and Research Integrity (ERI) culture in higher education and research through innovative training and curriculum development. Supported by the Erasmus+ KA220-HED Cooperation Partnerships in Higher Education framework, the project aims to address the ethical challenges posed by Artificial Intelligence (AI) in academic research. It emphasizes equipping Higher Education Institution (HEI) educators and students with the necessary digital, ethical, and research skills to promote responsible conduct in science. Key objectives include:Developing a Train-the-Trainer programme to enhance HEI educators' capacity for ERI instruction; Designing and piloting the AI-THOS Curriculum, which integrates experiential, arts-based, and inquiry-driven learning approaches to address ethical AI implications; Creating inclusive, participatory tools and resources to build a sustainable knowledge-sharing community that bridges research, science, and societal engagement. Project activities involve comprehensive research, co-creation of learning materials, international boot camps, pilot testing, and online course development. The outcomes include validated training resources, curriculum materials, and a European ERI knowledge-sharing network. The project envisions long-term impacts in fostering transparency, ethical awareness, and public trust in science, while promoting digital readiness and civic engagement. It is crucial to understand new practices for pursuing the ethical use of AI systems in higher education in an era when new technologies are entering the classroom, including in religious education.
