Exciting day for the EthicAI4Care project!

Today, May 6, we are holding the first in-person meeting of the EthicAI4Care project team — a key moment to share progress, align our interdisciplinary efforts, and deepen collaboration on the ethical challenges of AI in healthcare.

Tomorrow, May 7, we continue with a public seminar on AI Ethics, Justice, and Global Health. The event will explore how ethical frameworks can guide the use of AI to address global health inequalities.

Both events are taking place at the University of Macerata, Department of Political Sciences, International Relations and Communication.

Stay tuned for updates!
