đ° News
Charity Digital have recently announced they will be holding their first ever Artificial Intelligence (AI) Summit in October.
The event will explore the ethics and risks of AI, discuss the benefits and implications of AI for the Charity sector, as well as teaching practical and applicable skills.
A recent article by The Catalyst explores how the 2024 Charity Digital Skills Report has revealed âsystemic injustices in digital workâ.
According to the report, small, marginalised charities are facing âsignificant digital inequalitiesâ, and need more support to address these issues..
Some key stats highlighted include:
- 41% of Black led charities struggle to find a funder who will support a digital project, compared to 21% of the main sample and 25% of small charities.
- 65% of Black led charities are struggling to find funds to invest in devices, software and infrastructure.
- Only 15% of services are developed by diverse teams.
- 30% are not doing user research with diverse groups.
- Only 18% of charities felt it was very important that digital suppliers involve people with lived experience - less than 1 in 5.
Find out more in the Catalystâs recent article below, as well as how all Third Sector organisations can review their priorities around digital, and see how it intersects with their diversity and inclusion goals.
