AI in Crisis: How the Humanitarian Sector is Embedding Responsible AI

What does responsible AI look like when the stakes are genuinely high?

For our next Brighton AI event, we’re joined by James Michael Maltby, Head of Global Engagement at Save the Children UK, for a look at how AI is being used across humanitarian response and what responsible adoption looks like in practice.

James’ team supports more than one million humanitarians working in crisis response through online training and resources. He’ll share how the humanitarian sector is approaching AI, where the opportunities and risks sit, and what organisations are doing to embed responsible AI into their work. 💡

We’ll then open things up for a wider discussion on how AI-focused companies can work effectively with charities, including what good partnerships look like and where technology businesses can genuinely add value. 🤝
