Measuring What Matters: Embedding Gender Equality in AI Governance Through Gender-Specific Indicators

6 July 2026 | 14:00–14:45 | ITU, Geneva
Organized by the Gender in Digital Coalition — Derechos Digitales, Equality Now, APC, IT for Change, and Women at the Table

 

The WSIS+20 mandate (Resolution A/RES/80/173) calls for gender equality across all action lines — but AI governance remains a critical blind spot. AI systems are not neutral: they reproduce and amplify structural gender inequalities, from algorithmic bias to technology-facilitated gender-based violence. This session surfaces what current indicators miss and maps concrete governance entry points to embed gender-specific, actionable indicators — before standards are locked in.
