Responsible by Design: Building AI You Can Trust
As AI becomes embedded in nonprofit and social sector workflows, the question is no longer whether to adopt it, but how to do so responsibly. In this session, Rhea Saxena, Technical & Product Lead at the Responsible AI Institute, will share a practical framework for organizations to assess, classify, and govern AI systems with confidence.
Drawing on real-world enterprise deployments and emerging agentic AI standards, attendees will leave with actionable tools to build trust, manage risk, and ensure their AI investments align with their mission and values.
No Code, Good Vibes: Using AI to Build Tools That Power Social Impact
What if building software felt less like writing code—and more like describing the outcome you want? Welcome to vibe coding: using generative AI to create apps, automations, and workflows by focusing on intent instead of code.
Richie Cotton, Senior Data Evangelist at DataCamp, explores how non-technical professionals are using AI-powered tools to automate admin work, streamline operations, and support outreach and program delivery—without adding headcount or stretching budgets. You’ll explore real use cases, learn which skills matter most, and understand how generative AI is reshaping roles and teams.
Want to Keep the Learning Going In-Person?
Our Power Platform workshops are coming to cities near you. Over two days, you'll gain hands-on learning experience that will empower you to develop low-code and no-code solutions with Power Automate or Power BI. Space is limited, so save your seat now!
