AI & Equality
< Human Rights Toolbox >
Through our multidisciplinary community and innovative online course, we are committed to breaking norms and pursuing a human-rights-centric approach to AI.
Real world inequalities are reproduced within algorithms and flow back into the real world.
We believe that creators of technology have a responsibility to use that tech to serve the public good and mitigate invisible harms. That’s why equity and inclusion are at the core of the AI & Equality Toolbox’s mission.
Together, we can create an environment where people from all walks of life can share experiences and visions for a more inclusive, data-driven world.
We’re committed to creating a global community that brings together individuals passionate about inclusive, human rights-based AI.

This course is a ‘must’ for anyone who is thinking about using AI in their work. Set out in an easy to understand, step by step way, it’s an incredibly helpful guide to understanding AI and how to build AI systems that are fair and protect our human rights. This is the most useful thing I’ve read in the field.
This toolbox is great! Very credible information presented by international scholars, all tied carefully to international human rights concepts, conventions and agreements. The toolbox is the perfect connection between AI and human rights.
