OVERVIEW OF THE ROLE

In November 2021, UNESCO's 193 Member States adopted a global standard on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, aiming to harness the benefits of AI while mitigating its risks. UNESCO is actively supporting countries in implementing this standard through various capacity-building initiatives, funded by partnerships with diverse donors.

The Digital Flanders Agency has initiated an Artificial Intelligence Expertise Center (AI EC) to enhance the adoption of AI within Flemish public administrations. The AI EC's capacity must be bolstered to effectively coordinate AI projects across these administrations, ensuring ethical and robust implementation. The project focuses on three main outcomes: enhancing institutional capacity for AI governance, improving technical capacity for AI initiatives, and fostering human capacity for AI awareness and skills.

The Consultant will operate under the guidance of the Assistant Director-General for the Social and Human Sciences Sector and will report directly to the Head of the Ethics of AI Unit at UNESCO Headquarters. As part of the UNESCO Ethics of AI Team, the Consultant will play a vital role in developing knowledge products and executing tasks that further the implementation of the UNESCO Recommendation on the Ethics of AI.
