First Use Case Pension Reform Project

Researching, building, and sharing AI-driven policy development.

AIPOL is an open-source project developing methods and tools for AI utilization in policy processes, from problem definition and evidence research to alternative development, opinion gathering, and review.

Collaborative Research Foundation for Policy Development

Researchers, policy practitioners, civil society, and developers create, verify, and accumulate methodologies, tools, and cases as open knowledge.

FIRST APPLICATION · In Progress
