Join us for an action-oriented gathering focused on how Global Majority countries are building responsible and safe AI-enabled futures. This event will bring together regional leaders, technical experts, and industry innovators to discuss next-generation tools, practical solutions, and new approaches to creating trustworthy, self-sustaining AI ecosystems that address global and local challenges.

The program will feature a variety of conversations, networking opportunities, and interactive sessions, including two moderated discussions:

  • A New Era of Trust & Safety? – Exploring the evolving landscape of digital trust and online safety in AI-driven environments.

Building on insights from the 2024 Global Action Forum and the report The Global Majority AI Agenda: The Path to Shared Prosperity Is Anchored in Equity and Sustainability, this event will explore the intersection of Trust & Safety and AI, showcasing both opportunities and potential risks for online safety.
