This fund is dedicated to strengthening the capacity of civil society organizations (CSOs) to incorporate artificial intelligence in ethical, inclusive, and sustainable ways. We recognize the growing relevance of AI in shaping societies, and this initiative aims to ensure that grassroots actors are not left behind in this technological evolution. Through this fund, we support projects that promote digital and ethical AI literacy within communities, the development of open-source and community-driven AI tools for the public good, and the integration of AI in key areas such as climate action, public health, and social inclusion. Additionally, we foster civic engagement in algorithmic governance to ensure that AI systems are transparent, fair, and accountable. Our goal is to humanize technology and ensure that civil society is not only using AI, but shaping it with values of equity, dignity, and justice at the core.
Across Latin America, civil society organizations are tackling some of the world’s toughest challenges—climate crisis, inequality, public health, education gaps—often with limited tools. The AI & Civil Society Sustainability Fund empowers these changemakers by putting the transformative power of ethical, community-driven AI in their hands.
We’re not just talking about future tech—we’re making it real, local, and impactful. Your donation helps us equip grassroots organizations with the tools, training, and networks they need to use AI for the common good.
Because artificial intelligence shouldn’t be reserved for corporations or the privileged few. It’s a tool that, when ethically applied, can revolutionize how communities care for each other, advocate for their rights, and adapt to changing times.
