Description
1) Objective
Artificial Intelligence and automated decision making are transforming the world. But too often these technologies are developed without consideration for the needs of the individuals and communities they affect. For a fair, inclusive and sustainable future, a wide range of voices must help decide what role AI should play in European societies. The European AI Fund works to make sure civil society is heard loud and clear.
The European AI Fund empowers a diverse ecosystem of civil society organisations to shape technology and policy around Artificial Intelligence. They support specialist organisations working on digital issues to have greater impact. And they support organisations focused on other issues such as climate, race, migration, labour rights or justice among others to better understand how AI affects the communities they represent and advocate for their needs.
The European AI Fund 2022 Open Call offers a total of 1.8m euros in core funding to support organisations on two fronts: (1) Organisations that already focus on AI and its impacts: support to strengthen their policy and advocacy capacity; (2) Organisations that focus primarily on other issues: support to build up their expertise and capacity around AI and its impacts on the communities they represent.
2) Eligibility
Eligibility is limited to organisations with a primary focus on technology and digital rights to increase their organisational capacity so that they are better able to engage in advocacy and policymaking around AI.
3) Location
Actions must take place in Europe.
4) Budget
They are now inviting applications for core funding of between €50,000 and €250,000 over two years that will support organisations to build policy and advocacy capacity. They offer flexible core funding as well as non-financial support like training and network-building. They try to understand what each of our partners needs and let them be in the driver’s seat.
5) Application
The deadline for applications is 25 July 2022.
