It will help you to get to the heart of your responsibilities, indicate where it is safe to begin and tell you what you should avoid.

Why come along:

This session is designed to give you real, sensible guidance you can put to work straight away. You will leave feeling clear, capable, and ready to make smart, human-first choices about AI for your organisation.

What you will walk away with

The "Is This Safe?" Decision Sheet: A quick, common-sense guide so your team knows straight away whether an AI idea is safe to explore or better left alone.
Community Data & Privacy Checklist: Simple, practical guardrails to protect your community’s information and keep real people in charge.
