Impact AI Fellowship 2027

All Information

The Impact AI Fellowship brings together people from research, journalism, civil society, public institutions and industry to assess the social and environmental effects of real-world AI applications. During the ten-week programme, fellows apply a structured impact-assessment method to a selected AI use case, work with researchers and practitioners, and produce a case report. The programme is suitable for professionals who want to evaluate whether AI systems serve the public interest and contribute to sustainability. It is a funded professional fellowship rather than a grant for launching a business.
