"Free, prior, and informed consent when we're using AI becomes a more layered approach. We would need to be able to explain to beneficiaries what kinds of models will be used, what kinds of biases those models tend to have, what we know we can expect and what we can't." @tin.fyi @draftlab.org

"Data is not apolitical, particularly not data that has to do with transitional justice and human rights. Data is politics when you are looking at histories of violence, when you are looking at identity, when you are looking at memory." @ingleton.bsky.social
"When we're talking about transitional justice and human rights processes, which contain deeply sensitive information, we have to be really, really careful about what is going into those. All organisations should have a policy on how commercial AI fits into their work plans." @ingleton.bsky.social
"A lot of NGOs who aren't very technical or don't have that deep understanding, then get scared off of using AI tools in their work. And to me, it compounds an already existing digital divide in our community, and that's gonna put us on a back foot." - @ingleton.bsky.social
📅Last week, HURIDOCS joined our partners forming El Obse to reflect, strategise, and strengthen their collective work in #Chiapas, Mexico. We are proud to accompany the ongoing work of this network in a context where #HumanRightsDefenders frequently face threats and violence.🕊️
Our partners at TGEU put together a practical guide on how they use #Uwazi to monitor and document anti-trans violence, from data modelling to visualisation. A useful read for anyone working in #HumanRightsDocumentation. 👉 Read the guidelines: https://ow.ly/KVH250Z1Bo3
