AI and Diversity Observatory

The Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV), together with INECO, has created the AI and Diversity Observatory, a pioneering project that seeks to identify biases in artificial intelligence from an inclusive perspective.

Collaborating with vulnerable groups and human rights organizations, the Observatory analyzes concerns and proposals to promote equitable and non-discriminatory AI. In addition, it will monitor trends and issues related to AI in society.

Collaborating Entities

The international partner entities, including foundations, associations, universities, research centers, and multilateral organizations from Mexico, Colombia, the U.S., and Spain, among others, are part of the AI and Diversity Observatory, contributing to its development and mission.
