UN Women launched the Digital, Innovation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) Hub to place gender equality at the centre of digital transformation.
The hub will bring together governments, technology companies, researchers, AI experts and women’s rights organisations.
It aims to reduce gender bias in AI, address online violence and ensure technology reflects the needs of women and girls.
UN Women reported that women hold nearly 20% of AI jobs and only about 10% of senior AI leadership positions.
A global analysis of 133 AI systems found that 44% showed gender bias.
The hub will support countries in developing gender-responsive digital and AI policies and promote inclusive, sustainable and rights-based technology.
