Capacity, standards + multistakeholder dialogue are key to building a fair and just AI future for all. ITU is laser-focused on all 3 and, in the spirit of "ubuntu", will continue supporting #G20 efforts toward an AI economy that works for everyone. #G20SouthAfrica Leaders' Summit

2.2 billion people are still offline, disconnected from the digital opportunities that can transform economies and lives. Great to meet with world leaders at #G20SouthAfrica and elevate advocacy for connecting humanity. Together we can close digital divides and #LeaveNoOneBehind

@lathareddy51 .@alison_gillwald: Without a harmonised African framework, control of the new technological landscape will be set elsewhere. Despite Africa being the foundation for much of the AI economy, it receives little recognition. #CapetownConversation2025

@lathareddy51 @alison_gillwald @sdiep .@sdiep: The global #digital order is far from settled, yet tech companies are pushing ahead with a single idea of progress. We need room for alternative models and multiple visions of how the future should be shaped. #CapetownConversation2025

@lathareddy51 @alison_gillwald .@alison_gillwald: China’s infrastructure and investment in #Africa often come with caveats, including questions about how data is managed. #Africa needs a coordinated and harmonised approach to investments on the continent to safeguard its interests. #CapetownConversation2025

On the sidelines of the T20 Summit South Africa, the @orfonline, in collaboration with @T20org, hosted 'Breaking Barriers: Capacity, Data, and Inclusion in AI', in partnership with @OfficialINDIAai Featuring: @alison_gillwald, Maarten Smeets, @PaulRSamson, @sdiep & @SameerP_IND

.@alison_gillwald: #AI is advanced data-driven #tech, and how the data is collected and used must be factored into regulation. The #SouthAfrican #G20 presidency has attempted to guide frameworks for #AI regulation. #Data laws for #Africa must be made by #Africa. #T20Summit

No contestation or omission of interoperability & need for integrated, open technical standards in global, regional & multilateral frameworks. Technical regulation, privacy safeguards, economic regulation in @G20 DPI Integrated Governance Framework @T20org @RIAnetwork @IDRC_CRDI

For 80 years, the Security Council has shaped the UN and the course of history. But, without a Security Council fit for purpose, the world is in grave danger. Reform of the Council is imperative, and long overdue – including expanding its membership. https://t.co/P4GPT8OS2j
