Data CARE Workshops

To address the barriers to equitable AI development and deployment, the Inclusive AI Lab (Utrecht University) is hosting a series of Data CARE Workshops. Through interdisciplinary and cross-sector dialogue, these workshops aim to inspire actionable insights and innovative strategies to build responsible, sustainable, and inclusive AI systems.

Diversity in data

This workshop will focus on integrating diverse and underrepresented voices and perspectives of creative and cultural communities into the design and deployment of AI systems, and how these innovations impact cultural value, with a special focus on the Global South. Aligned with the CARE principles, it will explore strategies to ensure that AI tools reflect and serve the cultural and creative diversity and dignity of the Majority World and other chronically underrepresented groups. Discussions will center on operationalizing diversity in data, equitable data sourcing, fair provenance, authentic representation, and the democratization of creative tools to foster global inclusivity in AI-driven innovation.

The fully hybrid workshop will take place at Utrecht University Hall.
