AI Equality and Human Rights
Global network of AI practitioners, policymakers and advocates working on human rights-based AI
+1 more
The AI & Equality community brings together technical experts, policymakers, social scientists and advocates who want AI to respect human rights and equality. Members come from technology, social sciences, law, business and policy, with 1300+ members across 57 countries.
Run by Women at the Table in Geneva, it exists to bridge gaps between disciplines, regions and sectors. Members share best practices, co-create policy, projects and pilots, and question the idea that data and AI are neutral. It is open to students, academics, data scientists and AI practitioners who believe in responsible and fair AI.

- Apply a human rights lens to AI projects
