Announcing the fourth edition

The fourth edition of The Athens Roundtable on AI and the Rule of Law—scheduled for December 1st and 2nd, 2022—will advance and widen the global dialogue on:

  • trustworthy adoption of AI in conformity with human rights and democratic values;
  • effective enforcement of, and compliance with, AI laws and regulations;
  • implementation of AI international normative agreements; and
  • coordinated efforts for AI measurement and evaluation.

We look forward to bringing together officials and leaders from government, intergovernmental organizations, industry, legal and judicial systems, academia, and civil society for a participative and action-oriented dialogue on the operationalization of AI governance for the benefit of humanity.

The event will be live-streamed from the European Parliament on Thursday, December 1st, and hosted virtually on Friday, December 2nd.

The Athens Roundtable is organized by The Future Society and ELONtech. This year’s edition is being developed in partnership with the Patrick J. McGovern Foundation; co-hosted by the European Parliament, UNESCO, OECD, IEEE, Cravath, and Amazon Web Services; and supported by the Jain Family Institute and Arnold and Porter.
