Women at the Table is a Geneva-based civil society organization dedicated to advancing equity and inclusion in AI development through our **human rights-based approach.**

Our **AI & Equality community**, now with nearly 300 researchers from diverse academic backgrounds, offers vital tools and spaces for creating AI that respects and promotes human rights. Our flagship <AI & Equality> Toolbox course equips technologists, policymakers, data scientists, and others with the critical analysis and shared vocabulary needed to **develop AI systems grounded in equality and human rights**.

To expand our impact, we are currently developing **new Toolboxes** tailored to different sectors and regions, such as ones specifically designed for Africa, Latin America & the Caribbean, and the Environment. Each Toolbox will focus on specific use cases, incorporating the unique challenges and opportunities of its sector or region.

However, **we need your support** to continue this vital work. Your donations will help us expand our programming, build new Toolboxes, and enhance our online community. Your generosity can make a profound difference.

We are a global think tank  breaking down barriers to systems change - focused on Gender and AI to to leave no one behind.

**WOMEN AT THE TABLE** is the first organization to focus on systems change by helping feminists gain influence in sectors that have key structural impact: the economy, democracy and governance, technology and sustainability. 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.

We work to ensure that the data machines ‘learn’ from reflects the world we want to live in. Because this data is used to create the algorithms that decide what matters, who will be hired, which resources will be allocated…

But today’s data is implicitly biased against women and marginalized groups. It defines yesterday, not tomorrow. That means the ‘rules’ we will live by for years to come are being written to reinforce the way things were.

To correct the bias, women and girls in all their diversity must be heard. We need a seat at the table. By connecting the right people, at the right place at the right time, women can and must be involved in all levels of policymaking.

Our activities include:

- **AI & EQUALITY:  A HUMAN RIGHTS TOOLBOX** — An online course and a community to equip technologists, decision makers and industry innovators with the tools and concepts to build a human rights-based approach to the core of the code 
- **A+ ALLIANCE for Inclusive Algorithms** — A global coalition of technologists, activists and academics championing feminist AI around the globe, Recognized as a World Changing Idea by Fast Company and spotlighted at the Paris Peace Forum
- **FA+IR NETWORK** — A consortium incubating innovation and networking change-makers to weave inclusion into the fabric of emerging technologies
- **G-APP: The Gender Gap** — Equips organizations with hard data to address diversity in conferences and events by measuring the difference between representation, participation, and influence
- **ADVOCACY for a Paradigm Shift** — Our message resonates from the halls of power to international forums, influencing discussions on trade, technology, democracy and inclusive policies.

Women@TheTable

I attended the Women at the Table Summer School on AI & Equality. It gave me important insights into the topic. Among other things, it showed me how strongly the AI & Equality is linked to a discussion of values in companies. I can recommend the Summer School and the Women at the Table Community to anyone who wants to expand their know-how in the field of AI & Equality and AI & Human Rights. Scientific expertise is combined with practical application.  

We need to create the technology we need in order to create the world we want!  Women@TheTable's powerful + practical work helps make tools, drive conversation & sets an AI & Equality stage.
