While the rest of the world is just trying to keep up with the pace of innovation and growing reliance on AI, the Ethics and Culture Office for Women in AI has been busy with community engagement, launching our Global Expert Series, and working to promote the Global voice of @WomeninAI.
Here are just a few highlights from 2025
GROWTH, GRATITUDE, and COMMITMENT
Onboarded (4) new team members across the world focused on relevant disciplines in AI Ethics/Governance, Sociological Impact of AI, AI Product Development, AI Innovation & Transformation, Quality Assurance, and the Legal Ethics of AI.

We’re taking a deep dive into the Culture of Artificial Intelligence and how emerging technologies can remove barriers for women and girls, and contribute to environmental, social, and restorative justice.
We are also working to create more face-to-face opportunities (looking for event sponsors!) and developing industry relationships to support our community.
