AI has the ability to accelerate safe innovation and change humanitarian action for the better. Yet, there is a real risk of an underfunded, overstretched humanitarian sector accelerating towards unsafe use of AI to reduce costs with serious unintended consequences for vulnerable populations.

Join us for a timely and critical conversation about how we can address the growing concerns over unsafe AI use in humanitarian response and ensuring people affected by crisis are central in its development.

This panel will speak to number of organisations in the tech-humanitarian space who are leading on harnessing AI in a way that puts people affected by crisis at the centre of these new technological developments. We will discuss what is in the pipeline and what is needed to reshape responsible innovation in humanitarian action through clear standards, practical guidance, and ethical oversight.

Join CDAC Network as we speak to the SAFE AI team, Access Now and Nesta about their various initiatives and open up to the floor to understand how we can use AI ethically and to put crisis affected people at the centre of humanitarian action.
