AI for Developing Countries Forum Winter Edition at the United Nations

Partha Gopalakrishnan had the privilege to share the stage with Dr. Bilel Jamoussi, Deputy Director of the UN International Telecommunication Union (#ITU)—the oldest agency of the UN specialising on ICT, with a legacy of connecting the world since 1865, discussing Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs): A vital avenue for progress in the AI era.

On day 2 of the forum, he opened the session with his address on Pathways to Algorithmic Autonomy and the crucial need balancing innovation and sovereignty.  He stressed that Algorithmic autonomy is not just about independence — it’s about strategic empowerment in the global AI landscape.

As Chair for AI Education and AI Capacity Building, he had the honour to see his shared vision come to fruition — ‘fostering inclusive growth, peace, and sustainable development in developing nations, in alignment with the Vienna Consensus’.
