The CFR & CIFAL are organizing a one-day professional development workshop called "AI and Feminism: Foundations of a Critical Dialogue on Gender, Power, and Technology.
This interdisciplinary course bridges foundational concepts in artificial intelligence (AI) with feminist theories, offering a critical framework to examine how AI technologies reinforce or challenge societal power dynamics. Participants will explore key feminist principles, including intersectionality, alongside AI fundamentals such as machine learning and algorithmic design. Through lectures, case studies, and reflective activities, the course emphasizes critical theory and ethical considerations, equipping attendees with tools to interrogate and reimagine AI systems in ways that promote equity and inclusion.
A microcredit certificate will be issued to all participants from CIFAL York and The Centre for Feminist Research.
