Leveraging AI for Peace: Webinar Learning Series

As the UN enters a new era of AI governance under UN 2.0, the stakes for peace and security have never been higher. Artificial intelligence presents both unprecedented opportunities and profound risks for global stability.

UNSSC is pleased to invite you to the final appointment of our three-part online webinar series, Leveraging AI for Peace, bringing together experts from the United Nations, academia, and the technology and peacebuilding fields to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming conflict prevention.

This series examines how AI is governed within the UN, how it is already being used to strengthen early warning and decision-making, and what ethical safeguards are needed to ensure responsible and conflict-sensitive use.
