About
In partnership with The Patrick J. McGovern Foundation, the ‘AI Ethics, Data and Digital Rights Accelerator’ brings together journalists, newsrooms and civil society organisations (CSOs) working in the fields of AI and Data and Digital Rights (DDR) across Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. Throughout a series of multi-stakeholder training courses, participants connect with tech leaders and ethicists to explore the opportunities and human rights risks associated with the rapid development of AI across their region.
