Dear APRU Senior International Leaders and colleagues,

The project aims to make the beneifts of AI accessible to all people, raising awareness about the nature of the technology and governance of the technology and its development process.
The project team is looking for up to 12 scholars to take part in face to face and virtual meetings over a 12-month period with the intentions to present working papers and to publish their work with a knowledge partner. In addition, policy statements which address the key issues facing the APEC economies will be developed.
