Draft Policy Guidance on AI for Children
UNICEF offers this draft policy guidance as a complement to efforts to promote human-centric AI, by introducing a child rights lens. The guidance provides a brief description of AI and AI systems. It then considers the range of ways in which AI systems impact children today, which are illustrated by use cases or examples that highlight the key opportunities, risks and concerns. Drawing on the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the foundations for child-centred AI are presented: AI policies and systems should aim to protect children, provide equitably for their needs and rights, and empower them to participate in an AI world by contributing to the development and use of AI. Building on this foundation are nine requirements for child-centred AI, complementing key work already underway, but with a central focus on children. Read more here.
