Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have significantly accelerated human life, bringing about revolutionary changes in various sectors. These technologies persist in developing new processes to enhance productivity. In the current era, we believe artificial intelligence holds vast potential to unlock new avenues for tackling social inequalities between men and women. However, we acknowledge that harnessing this potential is not given but demands our full attention and careful consideration. It is crucial to remember that alongside its promise, artificial intelligence can also pose certain risks and present unforeseen challenges. Consequently, the future of artificial intelligence, encompassing both its transformative possibilities and inherent risks, stands as a paramount topic of discussion in contemporary discourse.

Adopting a holistic perspective is essential for comprehending the methods and stakeholders involved in the development and implementation of AI technologies. Active collaboration with diverse stakeholders, including AI developers and policymakers, is crucial for ensuring that AI technology advances in a more democratic, inclusive, and ethical manner. As a civil society organization dedicated to advancing women’s rights, KADEM, through its sixth Democracy and Women Summit, initiates a discussion on the strategic measures to leverage these technologies for creating an inclusive and sustainable world.

During our sixth summit, our objective is to engage in a comprehensive discussion on how the advancements in the era of artificial intelligence can contribute to a fairer and more equitable future for women. Through shared reflections on our experiences and ideas, we seek to deepen our understanding of women’s subjectivity, position, and rights in the age of AI. By fostering synergy in this context, our aim is to disseminate our calls to action and proposals for women’s empowerment. This summit will also serve as a platform to conduct advocacy activities addressing key concerns related to women and AI.
