We’re excited to bring you our successful, fun and free Human Rights Toolbox course, available two times in 2025 as a fully accompanied learning experience.
We aim to:
- Equip you with a detailed understanding of a human-rights-based approach to AI development
- Provide a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms currently counteracting this approach
- Introduce technical and non-technical solutions around the human rights impacts of AI systems
- Enable you to critically analyse and reflect on the objectives and outcomes of any new technology products
- Promote collaboration between disciplines and actors
Why?
