The Women in AI for Social Good Lab is a pioneering research hub dedicated to ethical, inclusive and impactful AI innovation. We empower interdisciplinary teams – led by women – to tackle societal challenges through advanced AI methodologies.
Our lab develops AI solutions that address real-world problems across domains such as mining safety, disaster management, behavioural analysis and algorithmic fairness. Priority projects include:
Led by Associate Professor Niusha Shafiabady, the lab unites experts in engineering, data science, business and policy to ensure AI serves the public good. We also advocate for global standards in ethical AI and creative rights protection.
From high-performance AI algorithms to shaping policy narratives around AI ethics, our work blends technical invention with societal transformation. We aim to make AI more transparent, resilient and inclusive.
We collaborate with industry, government and civil society to ensure our research is rigorous and relevant. The lab mentors emerging female researchers and promotes digital literacy through community outreach.
Associate Professor Shafiabady is an internationally recognised expert in the field of computational intelligence with many years of professional experience in both academia and industry.
