About this event

The RRING Community, in partnership with the AI Global Governance Group of the Centre for Computing and Social Responsibility / De Montfort University, invite you to this interactive online workshop.

The workshop will explore the challenges and responsibilities that arise from the development and (commercial) use of AI in a context of socio-economic inequalities as well as differences in cultural values, political systems, regulation, scientific capacities, and other factors.

  • To identify the responsibilities for researchers, innovators, firms and civil society that emerge from these challenges, to ensure that AI is used in responsible, fair and socially robust ways. Principles of the UNESCO Recommendation on the Ethics of AI will be used as a basis for multi-stakeholder dialogue and normative reflection;
  • To promote collaboration between researchers, civil societal organizations, academics, activists, and policy makers from around the world, with the aim to facilitate co-learning and future interaction;
  • To explore new possibilities for joint-research, knowledge exchange, as well as collective action and activism.

The workshop will combine presentations of invited speakers from around the world and interactive discussion with the audience, including in breakout groups.
