AI Action Summit Side Event: “Towards the Hamburg Declaration on Responsible AI for the SDGs”

Contribute Your Voice: Shaping Responsible AI for the SDGs

Join key stakeholders and innovators at this pivotal side event to explore how AI can drive progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This interactive session is your opportunity to shape the upcoming Hamburg Declaration on Responsible AI for the SDGs, ensuring AI is leveraged responsibly and inclusively for sustainable development.

What to expect

This event is a follow-up to the ‘Responsible AI’ session at the Hamburg Sustainability Conference (7-8 October 2024). It is an informal convening bringing together a diverse group of stakeholders to exchange ideas and identify concrete inputs for the Hamburg Declaration on Responsible AI for the SDGs. It aims to foster a shared understanding of how AI can be responsibly and inclusively leveraged to support the SDGs.

The discussion will focus on gathering concrete inputs aligned with the five key areas of action — People, Prosperity, Planet, Peace, and Partnership — of the 2030 Agenda, which form the foundation for sustainable development. A draft declaration will be shared in advance, which will allow participants to review and provide informed comments during the discussion. Participants will therefore have the opportunity to actively contribute to shaping the Declaration.

The event serves as a pivotal steppingstone leading up to further discussions (possibly at the Global AI Summit in Africa in April in Rwanda) and the adoption of the declaration at the next Hamburg Sustainability Conference in June 2025.

UNDP and BMZ cordially invite interested stakeholders from all sectors to participate in the side event. Committed to diversity and inclusivity, we encourage active engagement, particularly from stakeholders from the Global South.
