We are a think tank sparking systems change

Feminist AI: Innovation with Intent

As a pioneering think tank, we don’t just analyze feminist AI, we actively construct it. Our mission is to forge technology that eradicates bias and elevates gender equity.

A fair future starts here

Some of our current and recent projects include work with:

Collaboration for Global Impact

Our network, robust and worldwide, powers our agenda. It’s where Global South scholars and tech trailblazers unite to infuse AI with diversity and dynamism.

Policy Advocacy for Paradigm Shift

We’re the architects of influential policies, narrowing the gender digital divide and setting inclusive standards. Our advocacy is fearless, our influence expansive.

Workshops that Revolutionize

The AI & Equality Toolbox workshops transcend traditional silos. We demystify, we empower, we motivate. With us, insights transform into impactful actions.

Fostering Unity, Not Division

From engaging think tanks to resource-rich directories, we’re the hub for synergistic innovation. Our platform is a nexus for visionaries committed to gender-inclusive, gender-transformative tech. 

Amplifying Voices for Equity

Our message resonates from the halls of power to international forums, influencing discussions on trade, technology, democracy and inclusive policies. 

Ignite the Movement

Step into the arena with us. As a vanguard think tank, we invite you to be part of the vital momentum towards an equitable world where AI dismantles disparity, not deepens it. Here, technology isn’t just a tool, it’s a beacon of progress and parity.
