Upcoming Gendering AI Conference 2026
The 2026 Gendering AI Conference will be held from 20th to 22nd October 2026.

The Gendering AI Conference is supported and engaged by Kuza STEAM Generation as part of its efforts to promote inclusive and ethical technology development. The conference is based on the idea that AI technologies should be developed in ways that are inclusive, ethical, and responsive to diverse gender and social realities. It brings together interdisciplinary perspectives from technology, social sciences, arts, and humanities to promote responsible and equitable AI development.
Much of the conference focuses on supporting underrepresented groups in technology, particularly women and marginalized genders who are often excluded from AI research and leadership spaces. Through discussions, workshops, panels, and exhibitions, the conference encourages participation, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing to reduce gender gaps in technology and innovation.
Building AI systems that are inclusive and socially responsible is essential for shaping the future of digital technologies. The Gendering AI Conference emphasizes that technological innovation.
