This event will gather distinguished parliamentary leaders, experts, and international delegations to advance the dialogue on legislative modernisation through the strategic application of artificial intelligence.
The conference will explore the theme of "Artificial Intelligence in Parliaments," reflecting the growing importance of AI in legislative activities. It is designed to foster in-depth discussions on AI’s potential to enhance efficiency, transparency, and citizen engagement across parliamentary services. Participants will have the opportunity to share insights, best practices, and strategies for integrating AI within parliaments, emphasising not only the benefits but also the ethical considerations, data privacy, and governance issues that accompany AI adoption.
Structured to encourage collaboration and innovation, the event aims to inspire parliaments worldwide to embrace a future where AI and legislative services converge. Through a series of presentations, discussions, and knowledge exchanges, the conference will contribute to shaping a more modern, inclusive, and digitally advanced legislative institution. It represents a commitment to driving forward the transformation of parliaments, ensuring they remain adaptive, transparent, and responsive to the evolving needs of the societies they serve.
