Founded in Geneva in 2015, Women at the Table is a civil society organization working on gender equality, technology, and systems change. Its work sits at the intersection of AI governance, international human rights law, and multilateral policy.
Within the Alliance, Women at the Table brings feminist governance methodology, human rights framing grounded in existing international law, multilateral policy access, and the foundational work on inclusive algorithms that created the Alliance in the first place.
Women at the Table also leads the AI & Equality Initiative, which translates human rights law into practical tools for the AI development lifecycle, and co-founded the International Gender Champions in 2015.
Founded in 2012, Code for Africa is Africa’s largest network of civic technology and digital democracy laboratories, with roughly 140 full-time researchers, data scientists, engineers, and trainers working across 26 African countries in Arabic, English, and French.
Within the Alliance, Code for Africa brings technical infrastructure and implementation capacity: the AI Innovation Sandbox, a suite of open-source large language models, a library of templated prompt scripts, and the engineering mentorship that lets women’s rights organizations build rather than commission.
Ciudadanía Inteligente co-founded the Alliance with Women at the Table in 2019.
Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica (TEC) co-led the Alliance from 2021 to 2024, anchoring the Feminist AI Research network.
The Alliance is guided by an Advisory Board of researchers, technologists, and practitioners. Current programmes are supported by Canada’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO).
