Data Governance Working Group Report

May 13, 2025

Our Working Group consists of 27 experts, including two observers, from 17 countries with experience in technical, legal and institutional aspects of data governance. True to the overall ambition of the Global Partnership on AI, they combine cross-sectoral insights from the scientific community, industry, civil society and international organizations. They bring perspectives ranging from those developing COVID19 datasets to others working with indigenous communities to improve their representation. This has provided a rich discourse in the Working Group’s deliberations; we are fortunate to have a highly energetic, passionate and collaborative group bringing a wealth of perspectives beyond any single country. We are keen to build on that discourse and, in particular, add to the diversity of the group. We are therefore looking forward to the expansion of GPAI membership in 2021 and welcoming experts from new GPAI members.
