From Principles to Practice: A Problem-Oriented Approach to AI Ethics in Food Systems 

Webinar Series – AI for Food Systems Research

September 18, 2025

  • 9:30 – 10:30 am (America/New_York)
  • 3:30 – 4:30 pm (Europe/Amsterdam)
  • 7:00 – 8:00 pm (Asia/Kolkata)

This webinar offers a practical introduction to AI ethics, with a focus on how ethical principles translate into real-world decisions. As AI tools are increasingly deployed in food systems research and innovation, questions around fairness, accountability, consent, and transparency are no longer abstract—they are critical design choices with tangible implications. 

Together, the speakers will explore how AI gains relevance and power when grounded in real-world needs, not abstract ideals. By taking a problem-oriented approach, the session aims to offer researchers and implementers in CGIAR and beyond practical guidance on embedding ethics into the AI development cycle.
