Responsible AI @ Summit4Democracy

8th December 2021 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am

Research ICT Africa in collaboration with Data for Development Network (D4D.net) and with support from Canada’s International Research Development Centre (IDRC), are set to announce a new Global Index on Responsible AI.

The announcement of this new initiative will take place as a Side Event of the Summit for Democracy 2021. The event will centre around a high-level panel discussion featuring leading voices on AI and Society from around the world and representing a range of key stakeholders.

The Global Index on Responsible AI will measure progress toward the responsible use and development of artificial intelligence in over 100 countries around the world from a distinctly human-rights-based perspective. The Global Index will equip governments, civil society, researchers, and other stakeholders with the key evidence needed to uphold responsible use principles in the development and implementation of AI systems, meet development and human rights obligations, build capacity for responsible AI around the world, and deepen international co-operation.
