- The G20 Interfaith Forum (IF20) is hosting a webinar titled “AI and Peacebuilding,” which explores how artificial intelligence (AI) can enhance peacemaking efforts.
- The webinar will be held on July 16, 2026, as part of IF20’s ongoing “AI and Human Flourishing” series and focuses on AI’s role alongside human-driven peacebuilding efforts.
- Key speakers include John, Lord Alderdice, who was a key negotiator in Northern Ireland’s 1998 Good Friday Agreement, Professor Pieter Francois from Oxford University, and Julian Weinberg, founder of Dialogue Action.
- The speakers discuss the potential of AI to detect conflicts early, facilitate dialogue, and support collaborative problem-solving while maintaining that AI is a tool for peacemakers rather than a replacement.
- Another major point is that AI’s impact on peacemaking is still emerging and it needs careful consideration of its opportunities and challenges.
