Women at the Table

A fair future
starts here

We don’t just analyze digital infrastructure and feminist AI—we build it. For a decade, Women at the Table has sparked systems change by redesigning the tables where decisions shape our world, not just adding seats.

 

Our mission: forge technology that strengthens democracy, advances gender equality, and protects human rights.

Women at the Table Fall Events ’26 

This fall, the institutions writing the rules for AI, trade, and human rights are meeting and the frameworks they set now will shape digital governance for the next decade.

 

Women at the Table is convening across four international fora, from the WTO Public Forum to the Council of Europe’s Business and Human Rights Forum, to make sure women are in the room where those rules are drafted.

 

The sessions push AI and digital standards to reckon with gender: from trade policy and business accountability, to feminist approaches to peace and justice in the age of AI. Explore the full lineup below.
