The United Nations University (UNU) is pleased to announce an upcoming dialogue series titled “Bridges and Borders: Multicultural Exchange and Peacebuilding in the AI Era.” This insightful series will commence on September 8, 2025, at 09:30 JST.
In an era increasingly shaped by Artificial Intelligence (AI), the nature of human connection, cultural understanding, and the pursuit of peace is undergoing significant transformation. This timely dialogue series aims to explore the complex interplay between technological advancements, particularly AI, and the critical fields of multicultural exchange and peacebuilding.
The discussions will delve into how AI technologies can serve as both bridges that foster deeper understanding and connections across diverse cultures, and potentially as borders that exacerbate divisions if not thoughtfully managed. Experts and participants will engage in nuanced conversations about the opportunities and challenges presented by AI in promoting empathy, facilitating cross-cultural dialogue, and supporting sustainable peace initiatives globally.
The series is expected to address key questions such as:
- How can AI be leveraged to enhance multicultural understanding and appreciation in a globalized world?
- What are the ethical considerations and potential risks of AI in cultural contexts, and how can they be mitigated?
- In what ways can AI contribute to conflict prevention, resolution, and post-conflict peacebuilding efforts?
- What are the implications of AI for national and international policies related to cultural diversity and peace?
- How can societies ensure equitable access to the benefits of AI while safeguarding cultural heritage and human rights?
The United Nations University, through its commitment to advancing knowledge and fostering dialogue on pressing global issues, is hosting this series to bring together leading academics, policymakers, civil society representatives, and technology experts. The aim is to foster a shared understanding of the multifaceted impact of AI and to collaboratively identify strategies for harnessing its potential for positive social change, cultural enrichment, and lasting peace.
We invite all interested individuals to engage with this important conversation as we navigate the evolving landscape of our interconnected world. Further details regarding specific speakers and the format of the dialogue series will be announced in due course.
