Led by UN Women under the UNSPN Working Group, the AI/Data Sessions provide a collaborative platform to showcase how AI is actively transforming work across the UN system in alignment with the UN 2.0 vision. These sessions bridge theory and practice by featuring real-world case studies, templates, and actionable insights that demonstrate AI’s practical applications. Covering essential topics—such as problem and solution formulation, evaluation methods, ethical considerations, and human-centered design principles—the sessions equip participants with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the evolving AI landscape. In addition to technical skills, the sessions connect participants to valuable resources, fostering deeper understanding and more effective implementation of AI technologies. By promoting cross-UN collaboration and innovation, these sessions are critical for enhancing decision-making, problem-solving, and advancing gender equality initiatives across the organization.
