Paris Peace Forum Call for AI Projects 2024

Paris Peace Forum Call for AI Projects 2024

As we prepare for the AI Action Summit happening in Paris on February 10-11, 2025, the Paris Peace Forum is excited to announce a Call for Projects that focuses on harnessing the power of artificial intelligence to address some of the world’s biggest challenges.

AI is rapidly changing the way we live, work, and interact. While it brings incredible opportunities, it also raises new issues that could create divisions in our society.

To ensure these technologies uplift everyone, the Call for AI Projects is looking for global initiatives that improve lives while ethically framing AI. Selected projects will be showcased at the AI Action Summit, giving them a global platform to share their solutions—especially those that engage with civil society and the Global South.

This initiative is part of the Paris Peace Forum’s larger mission of supporting innovative global governance. Since 2018, they’ve helped present over 500 projects aimed at improving our world.
