CLEAI
Center for Law, Economics, and Artificial Intelligence
We Celebrate Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
One of CLEAI's core priorities is to leverage the power of artificial intelligence and emerging technologies to empower and uplift marginalized communities, including people with disabilities. We recognize that technological innovations have immense potential to remove barriers and create more inclusive societies, but only if they are developed and deployed thoughtfully. Through our research initiatives, we explore how AI can be harnessed to develop assistive technologies, enhance accessibility, and create new economic opportunities tailored to the unique strengths and needs of individuals with disabilities. By advocating for ethical AI governance frameworks and inclusive innovation practices, we aim to ensure that the development of transformative technologies proactively incorporates perspectives from the disability community. Additionally, our academic programs, workshops, and public engagement activities amplify the voices of people with disabilities, fostering greater awareness and dialogue around the intersections of disability rights, emerging tech, and socioeconomic inclusion. Our ultimate goal is to empower people with disabilities to actively participate in shaping the technological future, creating a world where innovation serves as a great equalizer rather than a source of further marginalization.
In addition to our commitment to empowering people with disabilities, CLEAI is dedicated to supporting individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, such as first-generation students, low-income researchers and educators, and the neurodiverse community.
We strive to bridge educational and socioeconomic gaps by providing equitable access to cutting-edge research, mentorship, and resources. Our initiatives include targeted academic programs, scholarships, and tailored support services designed to address the unique challenges faced by these communities. By fostering an inclusive environment that celebrates diverse perspectives and experiences, we aim to create pathways for success and innovation. Through our collaborative efforts with international academic institutions, charities, and NGOs; CLEAI ensures that the transformative power of technology and education is accessible to all, empowering every individual to contribute to and shape a more equitable future.
