We are at a critical turning point. In order to innovate and thrive in a rapidly changing global environment, new norms are needed.
We couldn’t be more proud of the incredible and groundbreaking pro-social AI that has been developed as part of the Feminist AI research network, and of the initiatives that we have built collectively.
October 8th is also Ada Lovelace Day! We commemorate and celebrate the life of a badass feminist without whom we could not shake the status quo. Ada was a radical pioneer in modern computing, and it is with her vision that we continue our work.
The Feminist AI Research Network is dedicated to thinking about and creating the future we want to see.
In discussion through our global network, through our Hubs in Latin America & the Caribbean, Middle East & North Africa, and South East Asia, through our Incubating Feminist AI project with its paper to prototype to pilot methodology, we are exploring new models and new ways of conceiving AI that correct for historic inequities and bring pro-social programs and policy fit for the 21st century. F<a+i>r looks beyond ‘leaving no one behind’ to a world where we bring everyone forward, and the creativity and brilliance of the world’s largest untapped intellectual resources are enabled to influence, design and build worlds that we all deserve to live in.

Over 2021-2024 f<a+i>r has spread the idea of Feminist AI to expand the collective vision beyond critical work on Gender Based Violence (the floor) to a vision of a world where new opportunities abound (the ceiling), and women, girls and marginalized communities are equal partners in decision-taking and tools-making.
The A+ Alliance funded paper, prototype, and current pilot, E.D.I.A. has been selected as one of five funded projects in Mozilla’s Data Futures Lab 2024 Infrastructure Fund Award which celebrates groundbreaking research and supports projects committed to open source and the creation of trustworthy data economies.
Join us on the journey and help build a digital future where everyone thrives. Help create true gender equality and democracy for both women and men, now.
