Join us for a thought-provoking talk on AI for Peace, where we’ll delve into the growing role of artificial intelligence in peacebuilding and conflict prevention. This presentation will highlight practical applications of AI, from early warning systems that anticipate conflict to tools that combat hate speech and analyze the effects of climate change on instability. Geared towards professionals and practitioners in peace and conflict settings, this talk will also address the ethical challenges of using AI in fragile environments, offering valuable insights into how emerging technologies can be integrated into the peacebuilding toolkit

Branka Panic is Founder and Executive Director of AI for Peace, a US-based think tank ensuring artificial intelligence benefits peace, security and sustainable development, and where diverse voices influence the creation of AI and related technologies. She is a political scientist, expert in international security, international development policy, and peacebuilding.

Her achievements in the fields of AI, peacebuilding, and conflict prevention have established her as a leading voice in the global discourse on these critical issues.

There will be a question and answer session after the keynote lecture, that will be moderated by Henrik Urdal, PRIO Director
