What should AI actually be doing in democratic participation, what needs guardrails, and what should it be kept away from? A new report from the OECD and Bertelsmann Stiftung, Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Citizen Participation, takes that question seriously — mapping 50 use cases from 22 countries, nine types of AI application, and the risks that come with them.
Join us on Tuesday, September 16, 9 am ET / 3 pm CEST / 8 pm Bangkok for a webinar unpacking the findings alongside case studies from practitioners already putting these tools to work.We will also use deliberAIde visualizations and summaries to demonstrate the potential of AI tools to support deliberation.
Speakers:
Case study presentations by Ireland Twiggs, Program Manager at Co-operation Ireland and Patiphan Srichai, Data Analyst at WeVis Thailand
Research report highlights and takeaways from Stefan Roch, Project Manager at Bertelsmann Stiftung, and Giulia Cibrario, Policy Analyst at OECD
Moderation by Nikhil Kumar, Senior Resource Manager at People Powered
Co-organized by: People Powered, Bertelsmann Stiftung, OECD
Going deeper: a hands-on workshop on September 30
If you want to go further, from research findings to practice, we're also hosting an interactive workshop on Wednesday, September 30, 9:00 am ET / 3:00 pm CEST.
In facilitated breakout groups led by practitioners working with these tools, participants will compare approaches, surface shared challenges, and leave with concrete ideas to use AI for citizen participation. DeliberAIde will support discussions in breakout rooms. Note that spots are limited.
