Meetup 20: Tuesday, April 23 at 01 pm (Geneva time)
Towards an Ethics-Based Governance Framework for Al-Enabled Health Innovations?
In the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) and its integration into healthcare, the upcoming panel aims to address the critical dimensions of an ethical, legal, and socially aware governance structure. This event will bring together experts from various fields—technology, healthcare, ethics, and law—to explore the transformative potential and challenges of AI in improving public health outcomes while ensuring equitable access, privacy, and non-discrimination. Panelists will tap into key factors for establishing best practices and discuss the importance of interdisciplinary and multi-stakeholder collaboration in fostering an ethical governance framework. This dialogue will emphasize the pursuit of accountability, transparency, and legitimacy in AI applications, particularly in developing countries, underscoring the role of such innovations in advancing global health and sustainable development.
