On the margins of the seventy-fifth NATO summit, we are pleased to join the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and the National Democratic Institute for an event marking the launch of Women Leading Effective and Accountable Democracy in the Digital Age (Women LEAD), a new initiative from the Biden-Harris administration focused on advancing women’s political participation globally and addressing barriers to women’s leadership, both online and offline.

 

The event will convene senior officials from the White House, the U.S. Department of State, and the U.S. Agency for International Development with government and philanthropic partners, civil society experts, and women leaders to discuss the critical link between women's leadership and peace and security, and highlight shared efforts to advance women's civic and political leadership globally through Women LEAD.

 

Humane Intelligence is committing $60,000 by 2025 to professionalize the practice of algorithmic assessment to counter the harms and risks posed by artificial intelligence (AI), including gendered disinformation and TFGBV (Technology-Facilitated Gender-Based Violence), which disproportionately impact women political and public figures.  Humane Intelligence will work with the Network for Gender Inclusive Democracy and the Global Partnership for Action on Gender-Based Online Harassment and Abuse in its “bias bounty programs” which will crowdsource answers to specific problems, such as gender and other forms of bias, in AI models.
