Time
- America/New York

This workshop organized by UNU-CPR involved over 30 academics and UN thought leaders and was organized to consolidate some of the key questions surrounding global AI governance.

The discussions also built out the third recommendation of Shift 6, put forward in the report of the UN’s High-Level Advisory Board (HLAB) on Effective Multilateralism, entitled: 'A Breakthrough for People and the Planet.' The recommendation calls for a multilateral agreement on a timeline for a global architecture for AI design, development, and use based on common standards and approaches.

In preparation for the workshop several working papers and other materials were submitted to guide discussions:  

Addressing the Challenges of Creating a Global AI Architecture
