From the Centre for Research & Education on Violence Against Women and Children Learning Network:
The Learning Network’s 2026 Virtual Forum (LN Virtual Forum) will bring together practitioners, researchers, and advocates to examine how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is both contributing to gender-based violence (GBV) and reshaping practice across the GBV and allied sectors. Register today for this online forum taking place on Tuesday, February 3rd and Wednesday, February 4th from 1 – 4pm EST
The LN Virtual Forum aims to create an evidence-informed, Trauma- and Violence-Informed (TVI), and survivor-centered space for exploring AI-enabled forms of GBV and the implications for practice, prevention and response across the GBV and allied sectors. The Forum aims to explore what this means for survivor safety and healing, accountability, and GBV sector roles and responsibility. The aim is not to champion or reject AI, but to create space for evidence-informed, TVI, and survivor-centered discussions and reflection on its implications for the GBV sector
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
By attending this LN Virtual Forum, participants will:
- Enhance understanding and awareness of how AI is being used as a form of GBV and its intersecting impacts.
- Increase awareness of how AI is shaping GBV practice, prevention and response.
- Apply a TVI lens to discuss implications of AI for survivors, persons causing harm, practitioners, and communities.
- Build shared “AI literacy” across the GBV sector, supporting informed conversations about ethics, sector concerns and responsible use.
- Support calls for equitable, accountable community- and survivor-centered approaches to navigating and responding to AI
