“Children must be at the centre of AI system design, not an afterthought,” said Vidhya Ganesh, Director of Data, Analytics, Planning & Monitoring at @UNICEF.

At UNICEF’s ‘Frontier Data Talks: Child-Centered AI Development’, leaders from government, academia, the @UN, and the private sector came together to explore how AI can truly benefit children, especially the most vulnerable.

Key insights from the panel:

🔵 Government leadership matters to bridge both digital and AI divides- Ana Jimenez, Deputy Permanent Rep, @SpainUN
🔵 Network & connectivity data can help AI-powered tools reach the most vulnerable communities- Katherine Macdonald, Senior Director, @Ookla
🔵 Transparency & public trust are essential for adoption- @sverhulst
🔵 Guardrails & accountability must be built from day 1 - @MeravPhd
🔵 Governance is needed to guide AI’s evolution - @bit4health

Moderated by @Accone, the discussion made clear how partnerships are key to drive progress in safeguarding children in an AI-powered world.

We have made impressive progress in reducing child malnutrition globally because of a shared commitment and sustained investment.

But steep funding cuts will dramatically reverse these gains and put the lives of millions more children at risk.
