Global Digital Development Forum

We need to proactively design technology to ensure no one is left behind⏤to combat and correct the systemic biases lurking at the core of current data, artificial intelligence, and algorithmic decision-making processes. Feminist approaches to AI and technology provide useful pathways to not only mitigate but also correct for historic inequities buried in data. We’ll discuss how new technologies can be leveraged for systems change, offering concrete examples and calls to action on how practitioners and advocates can leverage tech design to foster gender equality and inclusion. #GDDF21.
