Equitable AI
How Your Organization Can Harness AI for More Equitable Outcomes

Machine learning? Artificial intelligence? What are these new technologies and how can they support your work? Join us in March for a series of free offerings designed to help social and education sector organizations better understand how AI can support stronger and more equitable outcomes for students and communities.
Master Class: Preparing Your Nonprofit for Artificial Intelligence
Like the adoption of any new technology, nonprofits need to have a solid foundation before planning AI pilots. In this two-part master class, we will cover four key elements your organization needs to have in place before you begin AI planning: design justice and equity, strategic purpose, knowledge and skills, and technology and system design.
This master class is intended for established organizations that are interested in piloting AI in the future. As the class touches on all aspects of an organization’s preparation (not just data and technology), it is recommended for senior leadership.
Part 1: Wednesday, March 22, 3:00PM – 4:30PM ET
Part 2: Wednesday, March 29, 3:00PM – 4:30PM ET
