We believe technology should amplify voices, not silence them.

We believe in driving sustainable progress through innovation and empathy.

We believe our collective efforts should transform legal access worldwide.

Avv. Bernardo Cartoni, Committee Chair of the Universal Declaration on The Responsible Use Of Artificial Intelligence In The Legal Profession

“Last year, at the United Nations Office in Geneva, we, a diverse group of lawyers from 26 countries, united to champion the responsible use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the legal profession. Our declaration underscores a commitment to leveraging AI to advance justice, equality, and sustainability, in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals. We emphasized the importance of ensuring that developing countries are not left behind, advocating for AI to be a tool that bridges rather than widens the gap between nations. This milestone reflects our collective dedication to shaping a future where AI serves as a catalyst for fair access to justice and contributes positively to the global community.”

“The aim of the AI for Developing Countries Forum aligns with the UN’s mission of promoting sustainable development, equality, and peace. By ensuring the ethical deployment of AI in developing nations, this forum can drive social progress, economic growth, and empowerment, helping them reap the maximum of benefit from AI, while minimizing its negative impact.”
