Campaigning for a #welcome borough for migrant, refugee, and all residents Web: haringeywelcome.org Pod: nosmallvictories.buzzsprout.com Linktree: linktr.ee/haringeywelcome

We've signed an open letter with 60 others including Foxglove, Human Rights Watch, and Amnesty International UK calling for a halt to the rollout of faulty AI 'Facial Age Estimation' (FAE) technology by the Home Office which consistently produces errors. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Home Office knew AI age checks for migrants were flawed — but rolled it out anyway

Exclusive: Government advisors describe the tool as ‘hideously flawed’ amid concern facial age estimation has ‘baked-in racial bias’ — and can wrongly identify a 14-year-old as an adult

So far we have 63 signatures on our pledge from Haringey local election candidates! There's still time before 7 May for other candidates to sign up and show their commitment to making Haringey a welcome borough for all, so please encourage those canvassing in your area!

This government wants us to believe that there aren't enough resources for everyone- that humanity and rights are scarce resources. But we won't be silenced. Today, outside parliament we will make out voices heard - you can get involved from home ➡️https://www.praxis.org.uk/mass-lobby-support
