Pilot project Juki 1.0: AI revolutionizes youth welfare in Augsburg!
Pilot project Juki 1.0: AI revolutionizes youth welfare in Augsburg!
What's going on in youth welfare in Munich's surrounding area? An important chapter is currently being opened in the Augsburg district, because on July 4th the opening workshop for an exciting digitization project took place. Together with the district of Munich and the technology company IBM, the AI-supported assistance system "Juki 1.0" is being developed, which should help the youth welfare workers. The development and introduction of this digital support is at the top of the agenda of those responsible and is to be realized this year.
The initiators have made a lot of impending: the aim of the workshop was to prioritize the requirements for Juki and to discuss milestone planning for the introduction and the next steps for the pilot operation. Not only the youth welfare specialists took part in this exchange, but also IT experts, project managers of both counties and experienced IBM professionals. Together they want to exploit the advantages of modern technology in youth welfare.
technological support from Juki 1.0
But what does Juki 1.0 do exactly? The planned assistance system will be based on a AI approach with natural language and should not only save time for employees, but also enable the employees to calculate costs and the creation of hearing letter through automatic document detection and the extraction of relevant information. The integration into existing specialist procedures and electronic acts also creates a continuous digital process. In this way, however, the responsibility of the decision and personal support remain with the employees.
"We don't want to replace anyone, but improve the way of working of our skilled workers," emphasized District Administrator Martin Sailer. His counterpart in the district of Munich, District Administrator Christoph Göbel, emphasized the increasing requirements and bureaucracy, which can be accomplished efficiently through such digital solutions. The findings from the pilot project should then also serve as the basis for a nationwide scaling.
The challenges of digitization
The idea of Juki is a step in the right direction, especially in view of the challenges that child and youth welfare is currently facing. Digital media have long since arrived in the everyday life of children and adolescents and have both opportunities and risks. The areas of online counseling and digital educational advice are becoming increasingly important. However, the risk of cyberbullying and access to problematic content are also topics that deal with the industry.
specialists have to actively deal with the dimensions of this media development in order to find the right approaches for contemporary child and youth welfare. The cooperation between public and free providers and the control of online offers are central points that are to be promoted in the coming years. Digitization not only changes the life of the young generation, but also the working methods of social services. Remote workstations and digital files are no longer a novelty.
The introduction of Juki 1.0 is planned for the end of this year and could represent an important milestone for digital transformation in youth welfare. It is to be hoped that this step not only increases efficiency, but also improves the quality of life of young people in the region.
