About this Event
What does it look like when AI is designed to serve communities, not just systems? This panel explores real-world ways AI and digital tools are being used to improve accessibility, strengthen community mapping, support creative practice, and deepen public engagement. Grounded in place-based work and community projects, panelists will share practical examples, emerging opportunities, and key equity questions like who benefits, who is left out, and how we build technology that reflects community needs.
The venue is wheelchair accessible and a free hot lunch is available with veg/vegan options.
