Ethics for humanitarian AI
See the ethical tradeoffs in your project before they become harms.
Humani-T helps humanitarian AI teams find the ethical tradeoffs relevant to their work — and see how researchers in comparable settings have resolved the same tensions.
The four humanitarian principles
Every tradeoff is weighed against the principles that anchor humanitarian action.
Humanity
Address human suffering wherever it is found; protect the dignity of all.
Neutrality
Take no side in hostilities or in political, racial, or ideological controversies.
Independence
Act autonomously of any political, economic, or military objective.
Impartiality
Provide aid on the basis of need alone, without discrimination.
