Open consultation on regulatory approaches for AI 

Following extensive expert consultations and discussions with parliamentarians, UNESCO have released a consultation paper in English for public consultation on AI governance.. 

UNESCO encourages stakeholders, including parliamentarians, legal experts, AI governance experts and the public, to review, and provide feedback on the different regulatory approaches for AI. You can read the consultation paper here. 

The Consultation Paper on AI Regulation is part of a broader effort by UNESCO, Inter-Parliamentary Union and Internet Governance Forum’s Parliamentary Track to engage parliamentarians globally and enhance their capacities in evidence-based policy making for AI.

The Paper has been developed through:

Literature review on AI regulation in different parts of the world.
