Women’s rights organizations hold deep knowledge of their communities’ challenges – gender-based violence, economic inequality, healthcare gaps, education barriers. But many lack access to the technical tools to build AI solutions that could help.This program bridges that gap. Together, they’ll create sustainable innovation ecosystems that can be replicated across African and majority world contexts, building your technical capacity so you can own and shape AI on your own terms.
Community Learning & Development
8 weeks of learning modules on Feminist AI, data, models, and impact assessments, then develop a concept paper for an AI solution to a community problem you identify
Technical Support & Funding
Selected groups receive seed grants to build prototypes (CAD 7,500) or adapt existing solutions (CAD 3,000), with hands-on support from AI engineers and gender experts
Real-World Testing
Final groups pilot their solutions in their communities (CAD 15,000) with ongoing technical support to refine and scale
Your organization must meet all of these:
