The Global Forum on the Ethics of AI[1] is an annual international event convened by UNESCO, which brings together experts, policymakers, civil society representatives, private sector stakeholders, and researchers to engage in dialogue on the ethical implications of artificial intelligence (AI).

Following the inaugural Forum held in Prague, Czech Republic, in 2022, and the second edition in Kranj, Slovenia, the 2025 Forum reaffirms UNESCO’s commitment to advancing the global implementation of its landmark 2021 Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, the first international normative framework dedicated to the ethical governance of AI [2].

Context

The Forum serves as a global platform for multi-stakeholder dialogue, aimed at shaping policies and frameworks that guide the responsible and inclusive development of AI technologies [1].

Theme

The forum in 2025 will highlight achievements in AI ethics since UNESCO’s 2021 Recommendation on the Ethics of AI and underscore the need for continued progress through actionable initiatives. Also the event serves as a vibrant platform for global dialogue, collaboration, and policy innovation on the ethical dimensions of AI [1].

Discussion

Key topics will include AI's impact on human rights, gender equality, and sustainability, featuring expert panels, interactive discussions, and actionable strategies to align technological innovation with ethical principles [1].

Outcomes

In 2025, the forum aims to drive tangible progress and inspire international collaboration toward a responsible AI-powered future [1].
