From AI Governance Evidence to Local Readiness: Prototyping Public-Interest AI Through Intercultural Dialogue
A Geneva side event on moving from AI governance evidence to local readiness, public-interest AI prototypes, and intercultural dialogue.
EuroMedAI will host a Global Dialogue on AI Governance side event in Geneva, held alongside the United Nations Global Dialogue on AI Governance, in partnership with BRISD and the Global Center on AI Governance.
The session, From AI Governance Evidence to Local Readiness: Prototyping Public-Interest AI Through Intercultural Dialogue, will focus on how evidence, governance practice, and cross-cultural exchange can help communities move from global AI governance conversations toward practical local readiness.

About the Session
Global AI governance debates increasingly depend on the ability to translate high-level principles, evidence, and institutional recommendations into local capabilities. This side event creates space for an intercultural discussion on what public-interest AI can look like in practice, especially when communities, researchers, civil society, and governance actors prototype around concrete public needs.
The conversation will explore how AI governance evidence can inform readiness at the local level, how public-interest AI prototypes can support more inclusive policy learning, and how intercultural dialogue can make global governance processes more responsive to different regional contexts.
Focus Areas
- Translating AI governance evidence into practical local readiness
- Prototyping public-interest AI tools, methods, and governance approaches
- Connecting Mediterranean and global perspectives on AI governance
- Strengthening intercultural dialogue around AI safety, rights, and public value
Who Should Attend
The session is relevant for policymakers, civil society organizations, researchers, standards and governance practitioners, technologists, funders, and institutions working on responsible AI, public-interest technology, and inclusive AI governance.
