On 17 July 2026, Internet Governance Forum (IGF) Dynamic Coalitions held a webinar ‘AI for Good. AI for All‘.
As the global community reflects on two decades of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) and prepares for the times ahead, one question stood above many others: will Artificial Intelligence become a force that benefits humanity as a whole, or will it deepen existing digital, economic, and societal divides?
The dialogue explored where AI is genuinely advancing public good, how it can support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the role of governments, private sector, academia, civil society, and technical communities in inclusive AI governance, and what priorities should shape the future global digital cooperation agenda.
