The aim of the project is to provide legal practitioners with tools that would help protect individuals’ fundamental rights as established in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights against the risks associated with the deployment of artificial intelligence. The project focuses on the relationship between the design, development, and deployment of artificial intelligence and fundamental rights, in order to increase developers’ awareness of the importance of protecting fundamental rights and to offer legal practitioners solutions for coping with new challenges.
The project has four main outputs:
- A study (desk research + interviews with experts) that maps the potential risks to fundamental rights associated with the use of artificial intelligence.
- A framework for assessing the impact of risks to fundamental rights associated with the use of artificial intelligence + training for artificial intelligence developers on ethical use.
- An online toolkit + relevant training for legal practitioners.
- A public awareness campaign (videos) about the risks to fundamental rights from the use of artificial intelligence, using videos that provide examples of how artificial intelligence can threaten our fundamental rights.
The activities of the project aim to ensure that the development and use of artificial intelligence occur in accordance with human rights and democratic values, while also strengthening social cohesion and trust in new technologies.
The project is co-funded by the European Commission and the National Foundation of Civil Society in the amount of 3,695.88 euros.
