Civic AI Lab - one of seven UvA teams ‘Valued’ for science communication



Civic AI Lab is one of the seven University of Amsterdam projects to be awarded 10.000€ from the "Gewaardeerd!" fund of the Ministry of Education.


We aim to use these resources to spread the word about developing AI technology that promotes economic and social human rights, such as the right to health, education and employment, while respecting fundamental human rights such as non-discrimination and equality of opportunity.
