Greetings MBBI,

Join us for a townhall about the humane integration of AI in peacebuilding on April 13th at 8am PT / 11am ET. Ken Cloke, MBBI's CoFounder, will share his insights on AI and Mediation during this convening.

AI is transforming our work and communities through its rapid analysis of massive datasets, ease of translation, and faster ability to synthesize information. While there are significant concerns of its environmental impact, algorithmic biases, impact on the future of the workforce, and misinformation, it can also bridge digital divides for localized peace efforts and increase efficiencies through its functionality. Now is the time for significant conversations about how to intentionally use AI in our human-centered work.

To that effect, MBBI, along with Euda, is planning a series of workshops (AI Transformation Kickoff) to help international NGOs, advocacy organizations, academic Institutions, small businesses and community based organizations integrate AI while remaining mindful of compromising values, security, or mission integrity.

Here is a sample of what Euda and our members developed. MBBI AI Guardrails Reference Doc. 

As we near our 20th anniversary, we anticipate the impact of the enormous shifts in peacebuilding and look forward to shaping them with you- to participating in shaping this landscape and the ecosystems within it with compassion.

We are inviting MBBI's partners to this phase of our rollout of these AI Guardrails. Please join us, April 13th at 8 am PT / 11am ET for this 90-minute convening. Register Here for the This 90-Minute Workshop.
