As part of the UNESCO - IAU Lecture Series on The Academic Conscience & Artificial Intelligence, this episode welcomes Rachel Adams, Founder and CEO of the Global Centre on AI Governance, to reflect on the power dynamics shaping AI development and examine how universities can promote diversity, equity, and international collaboration

The Academic Conscience and Artificial Intelligence

This initiative builds on the IAU and UNESCO’s commitment to supporting inclusive, ethical, and human-centered digital transformation in education. It follows the adoption of UNESCO’s Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence (2021), and seeks to explore the evolving role of universities in shaping, understanding, and responding to the profound changes brought about by AI in knowledge production, learning, governance, and ethics.
