In line with the topics of interest from the first edition, the workshop addressed artificial intelligence from the perspective of education, awareness, literacy, and the like. Its main aim was to bring together and promote discussions among scholars, academics, and professionals on tools, methodologies, and techniques that support the development of a deeper understanding of recent artificial intelligence technologies.
The proceedings of the workshop include an introduction and 17 contributions (8 full and 9 short papers) that were carefully peer-reviewed and selected from 26 submissions.

There is no need to convince people of the growing pervasiveness of artificial intelligence. A lot of attention has been devoted to possible uses and applications of these technologies. The other side of the coin, however, concerns using them in an informed and responsible way. The aim of the workshop is to emphasize the need for education about artificial intelligence at diferent levels and in diferent
The goal of this workshop is to establish a forum for researchers and professionals interested in understanding, envisioning, and discussing the challenges and opportunities of AI awareness by promoting education for artificial intelligence, including aspects such as methodologies, educational pathways, and AI literacy. 2nd Workshop on Education for Artificial Intelligence (edu4AI 2025 https:// edu4ai.di.unito.it/ ), co-located with the 28th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI 2025, https:// ecai2025.org/ ).
